When you are looking for “brazen, unabashed environmentalism” look no further than Soren Sorensen, candidate for US House in Minnesota’s Eighth Congressional District:
...brazen, unabashed environmentalism. Investment in renewables was the way forward for the state, Sorensen said, and should be invested in with gusto as the industry creates tens of thousands of jobs.
"We have not put our money where our mouth is when it comes to investing in renewable energy. In our towns, in Bemidji and Hibbing or these other Range towns, we invest multiples of what we put into that solar plant in Mountain Iron, we put that into hockey arenas," Sorensen said. "So we do need to stop tippy-toeing around, or what have you, with our investment in creating a climate we can survive in by making a just transition into something other than fossil fuels immediately."
