Electric school buses have arrived! Electrifying our fleet will help cut down on emissions & equip our workforce with the tools to sustain cleaner, greener infrastructure that will benefit students, workers & communities—another step toward making Boston a Green New Deal city.
One more reason to be psyched about @MayorWu ‘s leadership. ESBs are a huge step forward to protect our kids’ health. Added bonus: they’re great for the climate (and so, again, great for our kids). School districts across the state should join the ESB movement! #greennewdealcity
Great to see Boston’s first electric school buses roll in today (quietly and with zero tailpipe emissions)! TY @MayorWu and team for making this happen! #BostonGND
Then: Announcing our commitment to electrifying our @BostonSchools bus fleet by 2030.
Now: Welcoming the first two electric buses to our Readville yard!
It’s official! Mass is officially the 1st state in the nation to have a #ClimateCzar! Great start to Healey Admin’s leadership on creating a better world for our kids&grandkids. #MelissaHoffer we look forward to working with you @MassGovernor@MOF_Mass https://t.co/kbx06VS0ED
TY @LorettaCLees for this excellent piece & interesting perspective on how @wutrain can urgently and boldly move agst climate. How Michelle Wu can become a global mayor on climate

We recently got rid off gas and put in air source heat pumps for heating and cooling.
Quite a few skeptics told me that I’d regret the decision on the first cold day.
It’s the first cold day.
The COP and lift of heat pumps is outstanding.
Save money and save the planet.
A few weeks ago, I wrote about a peer-reviewed study on green hydrogen that failed to disclose its gas industry funders and the role of an industry-aligned lobbyist. The journal has now launched an investigation.

We get it, #methane is a 😱scary😰sight! It explodes, it’s toxic, it’s expensive, it warms our climate. DPU will you get it too? Drop gas+embrace #renewables! Good for our wallets and our 🌍! @maura_healey can we count on you to #reformDPU @350Mass @MOF_Mass
Hey DPU what will you do about the #climatecrisis? Continue to favor expensive explosive gas 💰💥🔥 over cheaper+cleaner renewables ☀️🌬🌍? We expect you to do better and we are watching you 👀 @maura_healey #reformDPU @MOF_Mass @350mass @SusanDonaldson7
We are thankful to @MattOMalley and @MayorWu for passing #BostonCCE years ago. Now we can all have the opportunity to save money on our electric bills and improve air quality. To see if you are enrolled check here: https://t.co/UM06dpEVzM
Good environmental policy almost always means saving $$, directly or indirectly.
Join me in opting up to Green100. Your electric bill will be nearly HALF of what it would be under the basic service come Jan.

ICYMI 👉 New reporting by @shankman in @BostonGlobe raises serious questions about the @UMassLowell study on hydrogen.
This biased study secretly co-written by gas industry lobbyists must NOT be used by MA as leaders decide the future of gas in MA: https://t.co/TArN3vYLFa
