Superior Goes All Wind Power

In a rare move for a community - one even Boulder is a long way from pulling off - the leaders in Superior are going to actually put their money into leading by example regarding energy use. The town will be powering 100% of their municipal buildings with wind power purchased through Xcel's Windsource program.

Now that the switch has been made, the next utility bill the town receives should reflect the new cost of this principled move. I say bravo to the town for making a statement, as their choice to do so forces the issue (energy choices and pollution) to be discussed.
