Meet Our Solar Hero
BOULDER, Colo. - (May 20, 2009) - Solar Today magazine, the print and online publication of the American Solar Energy Society (ASES), recently published a story about Doug Shoemaker. Solar Today recognized Doug for the many renewable energy and community projects in which he’s been involved. As a “volunteer gone wild,” he’s become a keystone in the Minnesota Renewable Energy Society (MRES). In addition to his work for MRES, Doug now serves on about 20 renewable energy related committees and task forces. He chairs the Northland Bioneers, a sustainability group, and last year began working with 3M to help establish a Green Jobs Task Force.
