We'd say it's "hot off the presses," but it's a digital report. https://t.co/2cWDsIHAhm #BUClimateAction

@sustainableBU @washingtonpost @BU_Tweets Supporting local restaurants is so important right now. I ask them to save the utensils and napkins and condiments bc I’ve got those things at home.

There is a lot of interest in partnering with @AntiracismCtr, says @marcela_elisa. How do you sustain in this work? @DrIbram: "I am a vegan...it's done wonders for how I've felt." Also, regular exercise. And "I try to find joy in the smallest things." cc @bu_wellbeing

One of the ways I am seeking to express my love to black people and all people is by fighting racism. "I'm fighting from love." Climate change is an area requiring our attention. We can create a better Boston and a better world if we commit to anti-racism. - @DrIbram

What a great Symposium! I’m so inspired by you all.
