As well as being an environmentalist, I am a business owner. I have many bills to pay and tight margins in my work with carpentry and apartment building management. I have first-hand experience investing in green infrastructure. From the 9 air source heat pumps that I have installed in different locations in central Maine to the 8 kilowatt hour solar array I have installed on my own home here in Augusta, I am saving money and building my business by investing in new green technology. Maine can also move forward in this way, catching up to our neighboring New England states by investing in solar and wind infrastructure and by increasing efficiencies at work and at home.
