The Vermont State Legislature should override Gov. Phil Scott’s veto of H.289, the Renewable Energy Standard.
We need to act now to make sure Vermont’s electricity is clean, reliable and affordable.
Investing in local renewable energy makes sense for our state economy and for generations of future Vermonters.
The effects of climate change are already costing our state millions of dollars (for example, in flood cleanup). It is irresponsible not to do what we can to reduce air pollution and ecosystem damage from our power supply.
We can’t afford to delay this important action.
