COMMENTARY

WDEV Radio (Jan. 27, 2023)

I was interviewed on Vermont Viewpoint. Listen to the segment here.

Times Argus, Local challenges (Jan. 3, 2023)

We can neither relegate our future to the development demands of the rich, nor freeze our current city in a green glass bubble to prevent future environmental damage. Instead, we must start having a robust discussion of what kind of local cities we want to have. Such a discussion must focus on the resilient capacities to meet the growing challenges. This a really big local challenge, and we are running out of time to prepare a response.

VTDigger, The climate crisis is driving our housing crisis (Oct. 26, 2022)

It’s past time to be having an honest conversation about what is really happening. We need to have the guts to make hard decisions on the kind of future we want. Instead of focusing on the various Washington political dramas, we must shift our focus and ask what we can do to help our middle and working classes and our children to be part of building our future.

VTDigger, We have to be open to a different conversation about farming (Jan. 31, 2022)

Our state’s farmers are caring and responsible. Now is the time to build a secure future on their strong shoulders. Our health and well-being will be dependent on the choices we make now.
