Momentum is building away from fossil fuel toward renewable energy. Soon residents of Readfield and Mount Vernon will have the opportunity to help build on this momentum. A “yes” vote on a carbon cashback resolution (June 8 in Readfield, Article 41; June 12 in Mount Vernon, Article 33) will tell state and federal leadership that we want a climate policy that U.S. economists consider the most fair, efficient, and effective way to transition from fossil fuel to clean energy. ~ Melanie Lanctot, Readfield, and Deb Stahler, Mount Vernon
