Because they can see the benefits. I would love to see more states from the so-called heartland also signing on. Ohio(where I live most of the year) is too tied to fracking of natural gas to reach out to the benefits of renewables, and actually made legislative decisions to hamper the growth of renewables in the state. The decision damaged a new and growing job sector in renewables to support the natural gas lobby.

I am cheering on all the states, cities, and businesses who are taking a stand for the future.
