I’m new to Colorado and did not know that much about Governor Ritter. However, whenever I read in my local paper about yet another renewable energy company coming to Colorado I now realize I have Governor Ritter to thank for this focus on new forms of green, renewable energy. I’m hoping that the legislature here in Colorado will stay in step with the needs and wants of Coloradans and prevent resource destruction by mining companies. The focus of uranium is not on green, renewable energy. Energy would be produced by that uranium; however, it results in dangerous byproducts that remain dangerous for many, many generations. The process of getting the uranium above ground also leaves behind pollution, destruction, and health problems.
Regardless of your politics, please get behind this governor and his efforts to promote renewable energy sources.
