Green Light for Green Energy
To the Editors:
On November 7, Oberlin voters elected a new City Council, which stands to be far more progressive than the outgoing body. Although the new council will not be officially seated till anuary, the voters’ mandate was clearly in favor of clean energy. Fortunately, the City has a few months to back out of the coal project. Thanks to student voters, the Council may choose to follow this course. Although Oberlin is a small city, throughout its history it been a leader in progressive ideas. By moving away from coal in favor of renewable power, Oberlin sets an example for communities all across America. I hope students will continue to stay informed about City politics and will join me in commending the City Council for its action.
