I have a dream that all of the fossil fuel plants and the electric grid in Ottawa County will be locally controlled by the time Trump’s term ends, and that they will be judged not by the CO2 they emit, but by their generation of reliable, affordable, environmentally responsible electric for our baseload electric. Three cities, plus a swath of rural area, in Ottawa County already have locally controlled electric, so my dream already has some concrete expression here. Now is the time to make it a reality for the rest of the County.
