How can we use our money more effectively to reduce greenhouse gas emissions?

We prefer to donate to nonprofits that are helping make climate change improvements such as Winneshiek Energy District, Environmental Law and Policy Center and Iowa Environmental Council

We have invested in a 900 Kilowatt wind turbine and 1,100 Kilowatt of solar facilities that now produce 2,000,000 kilowatt hours annually and a 1950s home to significantly reduce its greenhouse gas emissions and install a solar array.  Tax incentives and grants made these projects feasible. All of those projects have been sold.

We deposit money in a bank that maintains a portfolio of renewable energy loans.  

When investing we invest in Socially Responsible Investments that have emphasis on climate change resolutions.
