Letter to the editor – January 9, 2021

Dear editor,

Last night, before I went to bed, I wrote a list of things to be thankful for. 

Certainly, there is plenty to be discouraged about these days, including the loss of 361,000 Americans to COVID-19, not to mention the raid upon the Capitol Wednesday as Trump supporters believed the election was stolen, despite plenty of evidence to the contrary.

However, here are some very hopeful signs:

In just 10 days we will have a new president and new administration. Joe Biden is a man of integrity and we finally have a capable and beautiful woman of color as a vice president. 

We now have an opportunity to repeal Trump-era policies that put our planet in jeopardy. We have only one home. We cannot destroy it for the benefit of greed.
