PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • February 5, 2025
I am a boomer and boomers sometimes get a bad rap for not caring about the environment because we won’t be around to suffer the consequences of environmental mismanagement. Nothing could be further from the truth. Our hearts are breaking when we hear “Drill baby drill” and other anti-environment venom. The government is obviously not going to solve our problems, so we need to take responsibility, right here and right now. If we exploit our limited resources, our children and grandchildren will no longer have those resources. However, if we make a concerted effort to conserve, natural resources will continue to be available. ~ Regi Robnett, Portland
