Bermuda WavesThe song Proud to be Bermudian by John Woolridge reminds us that "our wealth is so much more than blue skies and pink sand . . . the truth is there is more to us". It is easy to find bad news in the paper; wouldn't we rather find things to be proud of? It's time that we stood up for what we think is right, take responsibility for things that are not working, and build a Bermuda we are proud of.

grease-ballsNews reports over the past few weeks involving raw sewage and tank water contamination have brought new focus on what are, sadly, not-so-new problems.

The practice of dumping raw sewage just a few hundred yards off Bermuda's pristine beaches has been in effect for generations. But for many people, both here in Bermuda and abroad, it was real news.

SPRI CanceledGovernment has pulled the plug on the Solar Photovoltaic Systems Rebate Initiative (SPRI) that offered residents up to $5,000 for installing solar panels in their homes.The scheme was introduced in 2009 to encourage home-owners to use renewable energy sources, and was referenced in the 2011 Energy White Paper as one of Government's strategies to get Bermuda to generate 30% of electricity by renewable energy by 2020.
