Letter from supporter,
published in the Burlington Free Press…
“I believe our natural environment is the foundation of our health, quality of life and economy. I appreciate the intrinsic value of nature and know we have to be good stewards of this treasure so we and future generations can survive and thrive.” – Jimmy Leas, candidate for the 2-year seat on the South Burlington City Council.
Every day throughout the world we see floods, drought, tornadoes, hurricanes, extreme temperature fluctuations and earthquakes occurring at a rapid pace never before seen on the planet. I am the mother of a Stanford educated scientist/engineer. My son and 95 percent of his fellow researchers have already proven scientifically that human activity is responsible for this unprecedented speed in climate change.
