🚨🚨🚨 Check out these great tips from @HEET_MA on how to protect yourself from gas stove pollution.

There’s a lot in the news right now about the risk of asthma with an inadequately vented #gasstove. But there are steps you can take right now to improve your indoor air quality and health! A thread:

👉 New reporting by @shankman in @BostonGlobe today raises serious questions about the gas industry in MA and @UMassLowell study on hydrogen This deeply flawed study must not be used by lawmakers or regulators as they decide the future of gas in MA

Exciting news!! Work has begun in @Framingham_MA, the site of @EversourceMA's first utility-installed #networkedgeothermal system. It will provide heating and cooling to ~45 buildings, including residential homes and apartments, businesses, a fire station and low-income housing.

The continued use of natural gas in MA’s buildings leads to: 🚒Greater risk of pipeline explosions near homes 😷Increased rates of respiratory illness in kids 📈High heating costs thanks to volatile fossil fuel prices Tell the DPU: Leave gas in the past! act.clf.org/page/45083/act…

We had an amazing time visiting @EastieFarm's geothermal-powered greenhouse, the first and only in MA! Three boreholes will provide a stable temperature to grow veggies all year. We gifted the greenhouse a chili pepper plant--another way nature pulls heat from the ground! 🔥🌶️

👉Heating MA's homes w/ hydrogen = "saying you could heat your home using $20 bills as kindling in your living room fireplace. Sure, you may be able to do it, but is that really the wisest idea?" #mapoli Read @AcadiaCtr's @KyleTMurray1 👇 commonwealthmagazine.org/opinion/hydrog…

Ten MA communities now have the green-light to ban fossil fuels from new buildings. And if the effort succeeds in those cities and towns, advocates say, the rest of the state could eventually follow. bostonglobe.com/2022/08/14/sci…

🌎 BIG environmental news out of Massachusetts today as Gov Baker signs a sweeping climate and clean energy into law! The law is long and complicated, but here is what's in it. (Spelled out in simple English) @WBUR wbur.org/news/2022/07/2…

Dear @MassGovernor - please don't let your #agita over the 10-town pilot stop you from signing the MA climate bill. Those towns will have to prove they are providing affordable housing before they can implement no-new-fossil-fuel hookups. #SignMAClimateBill

Dear @MassGovernor, A few towns want to try out electrification of new buildings. Let them. Think like a father watching his grown children choose their own path. As parents, we know the #agita of not agreeing but accepting. #mapoli #SignMAClimateBill commonwealthmagazine.org/energy/baker-s…



📣 @MassGovernor Solidify your climate legacy & the health, safety and future of our residents by signing the climate bill today. We're counting on you.


Dear @MassGovernor Baker: cement your climate legacy today by signing the climate bill! This is your moment to help ensure Massachusetts can realize a clean energy future with offshore wind & healthier homes, all while creating good-paying jobs. Our future is counting on you!


Wind energy is our clean energy future - let’s have Massachusetts lead! @MassGovernor: solidify your legacy and our clean energy future by signing the climate bill today! Our future is counting on you!

This thread is wild. 🧵 There's no such thing as a "tight" gas system. Methane is leaking everywhere, all the time, despite billions in OUR money poured in to support an industry on its way out. Everything gas can do clean electricity can do better. #BreakUpWithGas

.@MassGovernor: Your own @MassDOER has found that nearly all new buildings can cost-effectively be all-electric. For your children and grandchildren, #SignMAClimateBill as is. #NoVetoNoChangesNoDelay #ClimateEmergency bit.ly/DOERreport
