Our state constitution gives us the right to free speech, the right to own a gun, the right to assemble. But we don’t have the right to clean air, clean water or a healthy environment. Maybe it’s time we did. The Pine Tree Amendment (L.D. 928) would add these environmental rights to Maine’s constitution. It would assure that our clean environment is protected, for current and future generations. ~ Sue Inches, North Yarmouth
