Letter: CMP Corridor: What it is and why it should be rejected

PENOBSCOT BAY PILOT • June 11, 2021

The main reasons that the CMP Corridor Proposal should be rejected are that it will not benefit Maine’s economy, it will increase forest fragmentation, it will increase deforestation, and it will not provide any new clean energy. In fact, it may even make it harder for new sustainable energy sources to export their electricity from Maine because the CMP Corridor could clog up Maine’s power grid. ~ Karl Hokkanen and Griffin Spear, students at Camden Hills Regional High School, Rockport
