MORNING SENTINEL • November 21, 2021
The nearly 60% of people who voted on Question 1 were sick of lies. More than $72 million was spent in lying to the public about the so-called clean energy benefits of clear-cutting 53 miles of Maine forest. One only need rub two brains cells together for a minute to comprehend that cutting down trees is not good for the environment despite $72 million of greenwashing. The mindset of Gov. Janet Mills and others who colluded in CMP/Avangrid’s falsehoods is grotesquely outdated. If we want a world where our children and grandchildren can survive and thrive, we do not attain it by building unnecessary transmission lines or following the creed of endless growth. ~ Susan Siens, Unity
