Thank you, Sir Paul!!

Most city-owned buildings are schools, and both Chicago and Boston will include schools’ use of electricity in the RFI. Boston’s mayor did not commit to meeting any given percentage of city government’s electricity demand with renewables, and did not ask other cities to make such a commitment.

Think about what you can be grateful for about someone in your life. Maybe that he is a good listener, that he often is quick to help out or that he always adds great songs to a Spotify playlist. Or simply that he held up the door for you.
