Use this carbon tax to assist those that can least afford the transition to renewable energy.

The only way out of this mess, is clearly right in front of us.

We are collecting data on BELCO and it is adding up to NEGLIGENCE!

Soot can travel miles before falling. Is the whole island being properly monitored? There is never any disclosure or information about this.

Maybe if the new leader of Liberty should spend more money on fixing the problem and less on his new logo car and shower, the soot will be less.

Why is belco rebuilding new engines anyway ?. Something wrong with the world class 120M power plant ? Who is paying for the repairs. Well, maybe while Hayward is speaking out about fallout, as labor minister he can check how Liberty employees came in after the storm on Caines’ watch? I am sure it had nothing to do with the CEO job months later.

Only in Bermuda. Blackouts , brownouts and still in charge. More to come.
