10,000 Minnesotans will die of cancer this year, according to the latest projections from the American Cancer Society. Cancer rates are high and rising here, and experts aren't sure why. minnesotareformer.com/2024/02/05/100…
Minnesotans deserve #RealClimateSolutions. Ethanol is a climate problem and the #mnleg shouldn’t be passing false climate solutions designed to protect corn growers and the fossil fuel industry. @COPALMN @CURE_mn @HP4HC sierraclub.org/sites/default/…

@kirstimarohn Avg liquid fertilizer price per ton between 11/27 and 12/1: 10-34-0 - $595 ANHYD - $847 UAN28 - $341 UAN32 - $409 “Raising fertilizer tax 1 cent per ton raises $25,000 /year MN Approximately. 40 cents a ton raises one million $ to pay for alternative water, etc for people”
This is key: “We have tried incentives. We’ve tried education. We’ve tried voluntary management practices,” Hansen said. “We’ve had meetings after meetings … and the nitrogen fertilizer use continues to go up.”

Last week we handed off pollen and nectar samples to @RoyRahul86 @st_kates! Collected over the summer as part of our @mnenrtf funded research on ground-nesting bees, we'll use these samples to understand fire's impacts on pollen and nectar characteristics.
@kirstimarohn Cut commercial fertilizer use; change rate, timing & application method Less public cost; focus on profitability rather than production. The stakeholder/regulatory capture machine will promote expensive public investment & more wasted time Fail: 34 years voluntary BMPs
The Clean 💧Water Fund receives 33%, which must be used to protect, enhance, & restore water quality in lakes, rivers, & streams & protect groundwater from degradation (at least 5 % of the fund must be used to protect drinking water sources). (Not remediation) #PolluterPays
Minnesota House Climate and Energy Chair @PattyAcomb to @SierraClub Executive Director @BenJealous: Just because a fossil fuel lobbyist tells me their solutions are good for climate, doesn’t mean are true. Continuing fossil fuels is greenwashing, not #ClimateAction.
