Vice Prime Minister William Marlin brought some good news yesterday: the government will buy the Emilio Wilson Estate and it will also embrace alternative energy.
That there is still a little matter like financing to be arranged seems a detail, but in a worst case scenario it could obviously still spoil the party.
Marlin’s assurance that the Emilio Wilson estate will be preserved, with the exception of a piece adjacent to retreat, is more than welcome; it also means that the by environmentalists abhorred Rain Forest attraction park is off the books.
On another note, Marlin announced solar panels on schools, LED technology to replace conventional street lighting as well as lights in schools and, last but not least legislation to facilitate net-metering – a system that allows electricity produced through solar panels to be sold back to the utilities company.
A memorable series of decisions indeed – and it is not even Christmas yet.
