.Lt. Governor Gray Joins Lawson’sFinest Liquids and SunCommon onEarth Day for the Ribbon Cutting ofVermont’s Largest Solar CanopyLt. Governor Molly Gray joined Lawson’s Finest LiquidsCEO and Founding Brewer Sean Lawson and SunCommonCo-Founder Duane Peterson, on Earth Day, for the official ribboncutting ceremony of Lawson’s Finest Liquids 495-modulesolar canopy, the largest in Vermont.The project, built throughout 2021 and 2022, is an exampleof the latest investment from Lawson’s Finest Liquids in sustainablepractices. The ribbon cutting ceremony for the solarcanopy coincides with Earth Day 2022 to demonstrate supportfor environmental protection and reducing greenhouse gasemissions. The official theme for Earth Day 2022 is “Investin Our Planet.”“This project is an example of exactly where we need tobe headed as a state, nation, and global community. Extremeweather patterns and rising sea levels combined with a globalpandemic, and war in Ukraine, continue to show us how deeplyinterconnected food security, economic security and climatesecurity have become. Projects like this are a triple winfor our resilience – strengthening our food and beverage system,our local economy and climate jobs, and reducing carbonemissions. Congratulations again to SunCommon, to Sean andKaren and everyone at Lawson’s Finest Liquids. This is an incredibleproject. Here’s to many solar-powered and produced“Sips of Sunshine” and sunny days ahead to help power thecanopy and keep Vermont beautiful!” said Lt. Governor Gray.Lawson’s first installed solar panels in 2019, an independentwastewater management system in 2018 and they partnerwith local businesses to responsibly recycle spent grain andbyproducts. Lawson’s has prioritized reducing their environmentalimpact as part of their Green is Grand initiative withintheir Social Impact Program (SIP).“From the beginning we set out to be the finest, source thebest ingredients, invest in state-of-the-art equipment, brew thebest beer possible and cultivate healthy, vibrant communities.That’s why our efforts in sustainability and striving to powerour brewery through renewable energy are so important tous,” said Sean Lawson.With the addition of the new solar array generating 215kWacross 495 modules, about 60 percent of the Waitsfield Brewery’soperations will be powered by solar energy. In terms ofbeer, this means around 2.4 million cans annually of Lawson’sFinest will be produced using solar energy.“Businesses like Lawson’s show us that it’s possible to providegreat products, grow to meaningful scale, and generatefinancial success all while creating increasingly positive impacton the communities where Vermonters live and work,”said Duane Peterson“This ribbon cutting truly represents so much of whatmakes Vermont special – two incredible Vermont businesses,committed to social responsibility coming together for ourcommunity, for our climate, for our state and for our planet. Italso involves two things we enjoy as Vermonters – sunny daysand a good IPA!” said Lt. Governor Gray.• • •Local Schools Respond to SecondAnnual Earth Day Essay ChallengeIn celebration of Earth Day, Attorney General T. J.

They gathered in the wake of hatred toaffirm resilience and community.This has become a kind of ritual, as violence and vandalismhave been a consistent reality for Vermonters who identify asLGBTQ+. In three separate incidents in 2007, RU12? CommunityCenter windows were shattered and “Burn in Hell”scrawled on its walls. In the winter of 2019, the very samedoors to the Pride Center were plastered with alt-right propagandaand Outright office signs were defaced by an emblem ofwhite supremacy, transphobia, and homophobia. This monthalone: anti-trans stickers have been posted throughout Burlington’sOld North End; state legislators that have supportedthe rights of transgender youth were targeted via social mediaposts and dubbed “groomers” by GOP leaders; and Fern Feather,a young trans woman, was murdered in what is now beingdiscussed as a case of the ‘LGBTQ Panic Defense’.We are a state that has proudly pioneered and championedlegislation to protect and affirm the rights of LGBTQ+ Vermonters.And yet we are also a state in which many of our communitymembers continue to feel unsafe – at home, at school,at work, and in public and private spaces throughout Vermont.For good reason.State statistics on violence against LGBTQ+ are limited, butnational numbers are alarming.The National Sexual Violence Resource Center reports that:• LGBTQ+ people are still four times more likely to experienceviolence in their life than their straight counterparts.• FBI data from 2019 illustrate a rise in anti-LGBTQ+ hatecrimes.• A record-breaking number of murders against trans peopleoccurred in 2021 — the majority of whom were women ofcolor. The risk of sexual violence is also increased for transpeople; 50 percent of transgender people have been sexuallyassaulted at least once in their lives.• Seventy percent of LGBTQ+ members of the communityhave been sexually harassed at work, and 66 percent wereafraid to tell their employer for fear of being outed.Members of the Burlington and Winooski legislative delegationsas well as members of the General Assembly’s RainbowCaucus condemn the violence and hatred that continue to threatenLGBTQ+ Vermonters. We stand in solidarity with the organizationsthat persist in spite of it. We stand with the communitymembers they serve and defend. Yet that is not enough.We must actively acknowledge the gap between the idealsthat launched legislative breakthroughs like civil unions andmarriage equality and the lived experiences of our fellow LG-BTQ+ Vermonters.What we allow is what will continue. All of us – politicaland community leaders, teachers, parents, and advocates –must call out hate speech wherever it crops up. We must createmore intentional, safe, and welcoming spaces in our communities.And we must fight for policies that protect our most vulnerableVermonters.Sen. Becca Balint, Windham CountySen.
