VERNON — 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 change with its high-capacity, low-carbon footprint. Vermont's energy portfolio is getting browner, with increased purchase from the grid and building Canadian gas pipelines.
We let them shut VY down, even as the global-warming drum was being beat. It makes no sense at all!
