Dear Ms Arsarnow,
My name is Tom Davis, and I am very much opposed to the Adage biomass proposal, in Shelton. I am not a member of the NoAdage group, but was asked by a member to speak on your program. I declined for the following reason: Opponents of biomass have worked very hard to support our position with scientific facts gathered from world respected institutions such as the American Heart Association, The American Lung Association and the World Health Organization, all of which have publicly stated that the use of biomass as fuel on an industrial scale presents dire health consequence to the public.
Please know that I am aware of no recognized organization dedicated to opposing biomass that condones or encourages vandalism of any type. Indeed, any danger to the public will not come from any actions of opponents of biomass but from the biomass industry, themselves. That said, our organizations do not wish to be featured on a program where vandalism is the issue.
Sincerely,
Tom Davis
It is necessary to note that I was unaware of the opportunity to speak on KUOW radio till moments before the segment aired. The focus, however, was on the vandalism of the ORCAA facility. which I did not feel was condusive to our objective. My email to the producer was meant to bolster our credibility as a legitimate voice of public opposition to biomass, thereby inviting future opportunity to speak.
ReplyDeleteKOUW waited until after ten PM to let anyone but ORCAA know about this.
ReplyDeleteI am such a hothead; I am so glad that there are cooler minds balancing my knee-jerk reaction to react!
