Upcoming:
RENEW Wisconsin’s annual Ride with RENEW bike tour highlights some of Wisconsin’s leading renewable energy installations while raising money to support RENEW’s ongoing work to protect and defend renewable energy in Wisconsin. On September 14, 2019, riders will travel on bicycle to visit the innovative renewable energy facilities in Appleton, WI. Stops will include the microgrid at Bubolz Nature Preserve; solar at Evergreen Credit Union, Heckrodt Nature Preserve, and Petit & Dommershausen Law Offices; the wind turbines at Essity; geothermal at RiverHeath; and hydropower at Vulcan Street Hydro Plant. This year’s event will also include an electric vehicle ride and drive.
What we’re doing:
- Be on the lookout for composting bins coming back to the residence halls!
- Check out the new Flex Farm in Andrew Commons. 17 pounds of leafy lettuce and basil were picked during the first harvest!
