There is what looks to be a pretty good website for the MCCAG that makes available a lot of the documents they see.It remains to seen just what impact the group will have on state policy but there is some promise. There are a number of long time advocates and experts on Climate Change who were appointed but there are also a number of omissions. I'd also like to point out that the Environmental Justice Advocates of Minnesota (EJAM) have a representative on MCCAG in Boise Jones.

Pawlenty Names Climate Board

Governor Pawlenty has picked 51 people for the Minnesota Climate Change Advisory Group (MCCAG). Sadly, but predictably, no one from Energista was invited.

This group will be working with the Center for Climate Strategies to develop a Minnesota-tailored plan to decreasing greenhouse gas emissions. I'm excited to see John Brandl, a professor and former Dean from the Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs, appointed to the group.

Thanks to those of you still reading - Energista will now begin getting regular updates again.
