Unlike in Mecosta County, there is little opposition in Osceola County to selling Evart's water for distribution elsewhere. Community leaders hope there will be a big payoff down the road: a new Ice Mountain bottling plant bringing scores of new jobs.
This is precisely where the Green Party needs to intervene. It's the same old "Well. we'd *love* to be environmental, but we need the jobs" attitude. How can the Greens point out the importance of preserving our natural resources without being dismissed as "against local jobs"?
