The producers of ‘Heated Rivalry’ just launched a real-life foundation inspired by the one in the book series
“Heated Rivalry” executive producers Jacob Tierney and Brendan Brady just launched the Irina Foundation, which will “champion LGBTQIA2S+ and underserved communities through participation in sports and the arts.”
In Rachel Ried’s “Game Changers” book series universe, characters Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov start a charity by the same name, in honor of Ilya’s mother.
Kate Spade New York is the foundation’s inaugural donor with a founding contribution, and it already has support from men’s grooming brand Harry’s.
Why is this good news? While the arts world has always traditionally been very welcoming and accepting of the LGBTQ+ community, sports are a different story. Women’s sports, despite underinvestment, have historically been inclusive — though efforts to roll back that inclusivity have hit the mainstream in recent years.
This is important work to ensure people can have a safe space to do what they love, be who they are, and have a place to truly belong.
The price to install solar panels has been declining for a while, disrupting traditional energy supply chains with near-infinite supply that’s driving low prices.
Twenty-six years ago, solar panels ran between $5 and $6 per watt of generation capacity — now, it’s 12 cents per watt, which one researcher called “offensively cheap” compared to alternatives.
The global leader in renewable energy, China has “installed too much green energy” that people can’t use it as fast as it’s produced. Even in the U.S. where efforts to revive the coal industry are underway, solar produced more electricity than coal in June.
