“This is bigger than we ever thought it would be.” The American Solar Grazing Association is proud to present the trailer for our landmark documentary film on the transformative power of solar grazing, coming Fall 2024. The film tells the story of our incredible ASGA farmer members who are creating a new vision for farming and solar energy in America. Sign up for updates and learn more about the release, premiere, and screenings: https://lnkd.in/eWWc5TKW ASGA started this film project last year because we thought it was time for the world to hear the powerful stories of our farmers. We traveled to regions that represented the geographic diversity of solar graziers and filmed graziers at their homes and on solar sites. We hope their stories will inspire others to see the value of solar grazing and the importance of agriculture on solar sites. One of the big goals of the project is to raise the profile of solar grazing with a bigger audience, and support the growth of the industry. Please share this widely with others in our network! If you're not already a member, you can join or sponsor ASGA here: https://lnkd.in/e2VYdy-b Consider donating to ASGA’s educational work to support training sheep farmers: https://lnkd.in/evrnBurJ #SolarGrazingFilm #ASGAFilm #ASGA

Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting our talented interns at our Richmond office. It was a fantastic opportunity for them to connect with various team members and company leaders, fostering meaningful discussions about our mission and goals. One of the highlights of their visit was a tour of our Crystal Hill Solar site in Halifax County, Virginia. Experiencing the site firsthand allowed our interns to see the inner workings of solar energy production and engage in insightful conversations. They asked thoughtful questions about technology, sustainability practices, and the future of the renewable energy sector. We are proud to support their journey and look forward to seeing how these experiences shape their future careers in renewable energy! #Internship #TeamUrbanGrid #RenewableEnergy

Urban Grid is officially participating in Plastic-Free July! Plastic-Free July is a global movement that encourages individuals and communities to reduce their plastic consumption and waste throughout July, with the goal of creating long-term habits that minimize plastic use year-round. As we embark on Plastic-Free July, it’s crucial to reflect on the profound impact of single-use plastics on our environment. Each year, billions of tons of plastic waste pollute our oceans, harm wildlife, and threaten ecosystems worldwide. At Urban Grid, we recognize the urgent need for change and are committed to taking meaningful steps toward sustainability. Our Challenge to Employees: Throughout July, we are challenging our employees to reduce their plastic footprint. By making simple switches to reusable alternatives and conscientiously avoiding single-use plastics, we will collectively make a difference. Incentivizing Sustainability: We are incentivizing our employees with a #BCorp gift card lottery. It is not just about reducing plastic waste; it is about supporting businesses that share our commitment to a cleaner, healthier planet. We can lead by example and inspire others to join the movement toward a plastic-free future. Let us make this Plastic-Free July count, together, we will turn small actions into big impact. #PlasticFreeJuly #Sustainability #EnvironmentalAwareness #ReduceReuseRecycle

As we commemorate Juneteenth, let us heed the words of Texas Rep. Albert Ely Edwards: "Every year, we must remind successive generations that this event triggered a series of events that one by one define the challenges and responsibilities of successive generations. That’s why we need this holiday." Juneteenth stands as a beacon of freedom and justice, marking the day when all slaves were emancipated and igniting a movement towards equality and liberation. At Urban Grid, we recognize the significance of this day and stand in solidarity with the Black American community. We reaffirm our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, understanding that our journey towards a more just society requires continuous effort and unwavering support. This Juneteenth, let us honor the past struggles and sacrifices, celebrate the progress we have made, and rededicate ourselves to the ongoing fight for equality and justice. #Juneteenth #Equality #CleanEnergy

As a #cleanenergy company dedicated to combating climate change, we deeply value the Chesapeake Bay's pivotal role in our environment. A heartfelt thank you to CBF President and CEO, Hilary Harp Falk, and Taryn Dwan, Director of Stewardship & Events, and the entire CBF team for hosting a terrific Bands in the Sand Event last weekend, raising critical funds and awareness for the work ahead.
