AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Herbicide Ban: Vermont became the first state to ban paraquat, an herbicide linked to Parkinson’s disease, with a phase-out plan for the small number of users. Data Center Fight: A veto of H.727 drew sharp backlash from Democrats and environmental groups, who say the bill would have limited big data-center impacts on Vermonters’ bills and air and water. AI Ownership Push: In Washington, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman met with Sen. Bernie Sanders after Sanders proposed letting the public own 50% of major AI companies via a public wealth fund—an idea Altman supports in principle, even if not at that level. Water Safety: Vermont Fish and Wildlife is warning the public not to disturb sea lamprey during spawning in the Connecticut River. Climate Watch: A weekly climate roundup highlights the growing environmental toll of data centers as AI demand surges. Wildlife & Nature: A story on Northeastern crayfish spotlights Vermont’s place in broader biodiversity and invasive species dynamics. Weather: Forecasters warn of possible severe thunderstorms over the weekend, with damaging winds and hail risks. Local Notes: South Burlington is moving toward initial zoning rules for data centers, and Vermont’s ski season report says visits hit the highest level in 11 years.
