In 2021, Minnesota grantee partners and allies successfully pushed the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency to adopt the Clean Cars MN standard, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 8.4 million tons over the next decade after receiving thousands of public comments. They also prevented the construction of a new gas plant in the city of Becker. Minnesota’s climate and clean energy advocates helped secure $5.35 million for soil health programs to support regenerative agriculture and farmers and create an Emerging Farmer Office for BIPOC, disabled, and veteran emerging farmers. Additionally, our grantees continued engaging in the Native-led fight against constructing the Line 3 pipeline on Anishinaabe land, including sending more than 4,300 emails to elected officials, which escalated to a nationwide call for President Biden’s intervention.
