I'm super fussy about wearing Coast Guard–approved personal flotation devices when I'm aboard any type of boat. Today, while paddling on the Connecticut River, we lost my husband Wayne's phone, our water bottle, a towel, and our canoe; but our life jackets may have saved our lives.
We started out later than planned - one day later, to be exact. Wayne, always the heavy lifter, put our red Old Town Penobscot canoe on the car while I loaded the paddles and jackets. When we arrived at the Vernon Dam, a canoe and a boat were already in the water.
Where were you when our governor, Gaz Métro of Canada, Green Mountain Power, our state Legislature and, and Vermont Attorney General William Sorell were conniving to shutter Vermont Yankee, which produced 70 percent of our in-state electricity? Nuclear power is a big part of the solution to fight climate...
My concern about the decommissioning of Vermont Yankee is that we focus too much on ideologues without adequate focus on workers.
RE: “Brattleboro Energy Committee proposes solar array at former WSWMD landfill” [News, Aug. 14]: This kind of project siting makes sense for Vermont! Utilizing brown spaces instead of green ones for industrial solar projects is a better choice for our environment.
