TIMES RECORD • April 23, 2020
We are facing the worst political-social-medical event in our lives and are at the cusp of another difficult time. Hopefully, if we plan and pay attention to it, we can mitigate its effects on all of us. This week, we are celebrating Earth Day. We have accomplished some things. But so much more needs to be accomplished for us to avoid the kind of disruption of public life that we have now. Flooding on both coasts, a return to air pollution, loss of animal habitat. What are the candidates for Congress and president saying about climate change? What are their plans? In honor of Earth Day, make a decision that you will find out. Your vote is important. ~ Jill Standish, Brunswick
