Panel discusses Orange County sustainability
By Tricia Thompson | April 18Local environmental experts said Thursday that Orange County, Carrboro and Chapel Hill are not very sustainable. Panelists at WCHL 1360's annual community forum discussed sustainability and environmental issues ranging from water and energy conservation to the local economy. Chris Moran, executive director of the Inter-Faith Council for Social Service, said that Orange County has the fifth-largest divide between "haves" and "have nots" in the nation and that this proves it's not sustainable.
