Great show…I thought the discussion about coal power and our energy system was particularly interesting.
Good show.
Energy. One thing Mark mentioned was that it takes 50 watts to make a 1 watt solar cell – wouldn’t it be 50 watts once to make a cell that generates 1 watt/? for 10-15 years ?
Community Councils. Thanks for bringing up the Community Council issue.
My problem is that, while I think they should be kind of standardized, some of the things Ms Cole wants from them would be very costly to institute and virtually all the money the city gives the councils would be eaten up with compliance. I think greater outreach would probably be more beneficial than messing with the rules.
Queensgate. I used to live on sunny Halstead Street & the sounds of the train-yards were kinda pleasant at night.
ok, I know I’m weird…
Quim: I also live within earshot of the Queensgate yard & love the sound of trains at night. I’m not sure how that will compare to the sound of the shipping facility though.
