I used to live in Burlington, and my wiseass friends and I, sitting out in coffee shop chairs on Church St., would occasionally catch
Mr. Bernard Sanders, once mayor, then US Representative, briefcase or manilla folder bursting with documents in hand, hair a wind-blown mess, bustle by like Hermes on some Mt. Olympus errand (he took his job quite seriously even then), and crack jokes we thought were pretty absurd at the time about him running for POTUS (let's keep our fingers crossed), so this achievement warms the cockles of my otherwise frozen, indifferent heart...
Renewables are
not a pipe dream, people. They
can reduce our emissions significantly. They just have to be as important to the rest of us as they are to the citizens of Burlington, VT.
