A supervolcano eruption in Italy or Yellowstone wouldn’t bring lava to Vermont, but it could trigger global cooling, food shortages, and reduced solar output — enough to stress farms, energy systems, and supply chains here at home. Quiet re
Vermont’s bag ban was supposed to help the environment—but data shows it’s doing the opposite. Switching back to plastic could cut emissions, lower grocery costs, and help meet GWSA goals. Sometimes common sense really is the greener choice

A decade after Vermont Yankee's closure, the state faces soaring electricity rates, job losses, and a $100M fiscal blow. Vermont's failure to plan for predictable challenges offers a stark lesson in foresight and fiscal restraint. #VermontE
