We are Friends of Columbia Solar, neighbors who came together to support Shepherd’s Run while advocating benefits for Copake.

THE CLIMATE CRISIS IS HERE. THE TIME TO ACT IS NOW.

WHAT CAN WE DO?

In 2019, New York State passed the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act - the CLCPA - calling for the state to reach 100% zero-emission electricity by 2050. How can we do it? Build solar, wind and hydro facilities. 

And you can begin right here at home, by supporting Shepherd’s Run, a moderately-scaled solar project in Copake, now in the permitting stage.

Let’s be proud to live in a town that stepped up to face the greatest challenge of our lifetimes.
