The Cape Wind Farm controversy reminds me of our situation in Vermont. Hypocrisy is alive and well on Cape Cod and in Vermont when it comes to industrial scale wind development. We just don't like to make trade-offs when it comes to building vital infrastructure.
Would that life would be so simple as to not require hard choices! Perhaps Vermont needs another non-profit; let's call it NIMBYS United Against Tough Choices where ideologues could gather to talk 'green' while doing nothing helpful for our economy. They could use Senator Shumlin' s example of leading the Legislature through a climate change sensitivity session in 2007 while doing nothing for Vermont's economy.
