The first day of the week long storm
Good morning, 🎧 At 9 a.m. on Tuesday, MPR News host Angela Davis talks with three guests about what is behind the rise in antisemitism and how we can address it.

There’s a potential for ice accumulation in southwestern Minnesota, with two-tenths to four-tenths of an inch possible for Pipestone, Worthington and Windom into early Tuesday.

| | Walz, DFL lawmakers look to speed up shift to carbon-free electricity | Minnesota's electric utilities have been moving away from burning fossil fuels toward more renewable energy sources at a rapid pace. They’ve shuttered coal-fired power plants that emit greenhouse gases and commissioned new solar and wind farms. Last year, renewable resources, including wind, solar, biomass and hydropower, generated the largest share of Minnesota's electricity, nearly 30 percent. But clean energy advocates and Gov. Tim Walz’s administration say the transition isn't happening quickly enough to address the looming crisis of climate change. Minnesota is not currently on track to meet its goals to cut greenhouse gas emissions. | |
