HYDROPOWER? POUR IT ON!
Gov. Charlie Baker's recently filed bill to widen the use of hydropower in Massachusetts, especially by importing it from Canada, drew this endorsement from an online reader to a July 29 article (Beaton: Hydropower key to meeting state emissions target):
“Finally some common sense from Beacon Hill regarding green renewable energy. Quebec is the Saudi Arabia of hydropower. Buying hydropower at (a cost of) 75 percent less than solar or offshore wind power makes economic and environmental sense.”

RISE IN HOME BUILDING?
Sales of existing homes are increasing. Will that mean a rise in the building of new homes in Central Massachusetts? Here's one Realtor's take:
“I agree. … There is a need for housing in Worcester, but the type of housing is one of debate. Insurance costs have gone up, which (has) put pressure on rental unit owners to raise rents to cover expenses.”
