1/2 Biofuel combustion emits same amount of CO2 per unit of energy as petroleum. Burning wood releases more carbon than coal or natural gas. And, methane is a powerful greenhouse gas that warms the planet 86 times as much as CO2. https://t.co/evpOB2Q4tC #vtpoli

As #VT gets ready to ban the sale of gasoline-powered vehicles by 2035, I examine #ElectricVehicles by answering 4 questions:
1) How #green are EVs?
2) How clean are EVs?
3) How just are EV promotion policies?
4) How safe is widescale EV adoption?

Can the New England electric grid manage the massive increase in electricity demand that would follow a 100% transition to electric vehicles by 2035? Should we prepare for planned blackouts in the near future? https://t.co/wBKvPXQm20 #vtpoli
Meg Hansen, @EAIVT president, predicted that a ban on gas-powered vehicles would fail in rural states like hers where public transit is not an option and zero-emission technology is “not affordable or readily available.” https://t.co/DJEj8JuS0E #vtpoli#StopClimateCatastrophizing
"The Clean Heat Standard is nothing but a mix of self-righteous political theater covering up lucrative #cronyism between #VT elected officials & favored businesses and nonprofits." #ClimateAlarmism#vtpoli

1/3 Rise of #CancelCulture & institutionalization of catastrophic thinking (“The world's gonna end in 12 years”) are toxic thought patterns/ behaviors wreaking havoc on our psyche and all the more on that of young people. Then came #COVID19. https://t.co/xxmaxQpabu #vtpoli
"Hansen has an established record of effective community engagement and has her finger on the pulse of #grassroots issues. The many thousands of people who have connected with Meg are testament to her impactful career, @EAIVT said in a release." https://t.co/7vuO13PdAR #vtpoli
The EAI Team welcomes Meg Hansen as our new president! 👏 We are excited to support @megmhansen as she brings the Ethan Allen Institute to the next level of influence and impact in #VT.

While you’re at it, maybe the @VermontSOS’s office can stop sending ballots to folks who don’t live in VT.
A good friend kept getting ballots w/ her name mailed to her parents’ VT address in 2020, even though she hasn’t lived there in years & has been registered in FL. #vtpoli
