Letters: Cape Wind as a United Nations Issue »

The Aquinnah and Mashpee Wampanoag tribes say the project will destroy the religious practice of greeting the morning sun, and could harm ancient tribal burial grounds of Horseshoe Shoals. It should be brought to the attention of the United Nations that the Wampanoags say their spiritual greetings of the sun require unobstructed views and say turbines could disturb the ancestral burying grounds.

Letters: NStar Spraying Not Necessary »

NStar intends to spray a mixture of five herbicides along 150 miles of Cape Cod (times 200 feet). I'm extremely worried for my health and the health of my neighbor.  Being an organic landscaper I know herbicidal spray is the wrong method of brush removal. Federal law requires the utility company to keep vegetation low so it won't interfere with our power source, but it does not mandate chemical spraying. In the past NStar mowed every seven years.

Letters: Reject Monster Wind Turbine at College »

To The Editor:

A monster-sized wind turbine at Cape Cod Community College within the Olde King's Highway Historic District is inappropriate. Such a monstrosity at that venue would be a tremendous community eyesore. A wind turbine will cause noise pollution and flickering shadows. It would negatively impact local bird populations. It will cause a detrimental reduction in local property values.

Letters: No to Cape Wind »

To The Editor:

As a colonial-rooted Cape Cod native who firmly believes in the sanctity of our maritime heritage, I am writing to ardently express my steadfast support for the Alliance to Protect Nantucket Sound. Based upon sensible logic, data and reasoning, I am also conversely opposed to the controversial Cape Wind Project which seeks to despoil and rob us of the pristine nautical legacy bestowed by our forefathers.
