Town Pump Cancel your Gas Station in WF and build a Park!
Town Pump, who already has a gas station in WF, wants to build another larger one, one mile away. It is unconscionable, when gas is trading below zero, and the need to move away from fossil fuels couldn't be more important, that this company is paving over 6 acres of forrest to build another unwanted, unneeded, resource extraction at the entry to this town they purpose to love. Town Pump should lead the way in transforming the oil and gas industry towards renewable resources. Keep the land intact! Put an EV charging system at your other locations. Take a tax write-off and donate the land to a public trust or a public park!
Why is this important?
We need strong leaders in industry who have vision, understanding and intelligence to lead us into the realistic future. This future will not be dependent on fossil fuels. We have a narrow window of opportunity to save the planet, and the humans who live on it. In a state where wildfires are becoming their own season, it does not make sense to cut down more trees to pump more oil out of the earth. Help us toward a different future!
Sit down with the City Council, Concerned Citizens, and craft a beneficial use for that land that helps our world! You could become a true leader in the changes that are coming, whether you want them or not. Your model is obsolete. Don't destroy another piece of land just to be proven wrong.
Be a Real Leader and Do The Right Thing!
