China - Workers Cooperative Union, 500 Yuan, 1949
This is an organization that seeks to establish community owned solar energy across the US. In a world of corporate interests dominating the field, this is a workplace democracy, and a nonprofit, meaning you can be far more confident that they have the people’s interests at heart. If there was ever a place to send your money to build a sustainable future in America, this would be the place. Make a bookmark if you won’t donate now.

If Justice40 and related environmental justice program goals are to be achieved, racial equity and cooperative ownership of resources must b
Despite “historic” federal investments, many community members feel weary from bearing the disproportionate impact of the climate crisis, persistent discrimination within environmental nonprofits, and inadequate infrastructure to access federal resources. Whether the promises of Justice40 or the IRA are realized is not just about communities receiving grants but whether they can secure their futures by securing ownership over critical resources, such as renewable energy generation.

The cooperative efforts referenced here are only a few examples of communities coming together to address climate change impacts locally. Coalitions of communities committed to equity are best positioned to identify federal investment opportunities, collaborate to submit successful applications, and cooperatively share not only the environmental but also the economic benefits this moment demands.
The bottom line: Economic justice and environmental justice advocates cannot afford to merely tinker at the edges of energy, environmental, and wealth inequities. Instead, it is vital to lean into our interdependence to create and replicate successful models of accessible community ownership of the new energy system. Our survival may very well depend on the collective actions taken today.

Another post about Artisan Co-op's October membership drive.
I'll make this one brief, because I mostly just wanna share a different post: My first article for the Coop's blog! (Doing the kind of posting you can put on a resume now. 😎)
It goes over what membership means and hopefully does a good job of outlining uhhh everything? So if you're an Etsy seller or thinking about it or actively looking for an Etsy alternative - or if you simply want to support artisans (you don't have to be a seller to join) - maybeeee take a look at my Coop-approved pitch on why you should be part of a cooperative, and this one in particular?
In just a few years, Artisans Cooperative has crafted an online handmade marketplace for an inclusive network of creatives. We are a member-
