You will be banking on desperate climate refugees and the rest of the US going to shit. With crappy snow, long dark cold and rainy winters and small mountains VT won't be that attractive to people.

We need to double and triple down on "Made in VT" so our people who reside here all year around can get paid enough to actually live in VT. We will always have tourism, skiing/wintersports, and agriculture.. we just need more of the rest of the industries that make up a functional economy too!

Every crisis is an opportunity. We need to figure out how to adapt to a changing planet if we are ever going to exist off this one. Im all for eliminating our dependence on FF, but not if its going to just make a different group of folks rich,off a different set of problematic resources, while main street folks still get screwed on the monthly utilities.
