Check out this quote from @k_atherton1 on a recently published policy memo ft. authors from STEPUP! They took a look at the Bunker Hill Public Housing development and how the city could reduce the urban heat island effect and improve equitable environmental health outcomes.

[Journal of Science Policy & Governance (JSPG) @SciPolJournal]

"The Bunker Hill Public Housing development is...home to a large population of racial and ethnic minorities, that requires major redevelopment and repair to enhance the safety of its residents" says @k_atherton1 et al. of @STEPUP_BU
