ReImagine Appalachia The IRA is a Bridge from Allegheny County’s Past to Its Clean Energy Future

By September 12, 2024No Comments

Communities across Appalachia are eager to move toward a cleaner, more sustainable future while still honoring our past. Federal Clean Energy funding is a bridge for us to get there.

We recently sat down with Danielle Crumrine, Executive Director of Tree Pittsburgh, and she shared her love of trees, of Pittsburgh, and of the coal communities like the ones she grew up in. She also spoke about how vital Federal Clean Energy Plan funding is for Tree Pittsburgh at this moment in time — as Allegheny County shifts from its industrial, coal-powered past to a cleaner future.

Watch Danielle’s story to hear how growing up as the granddaughter of coal miners and farmers fed her love for the environment and for her work to enrich Pittsburgh’s tree canopy.
