🚢 Today we announced with @American_Cruise that the @CityofProv is a new port of call on their New England itineraries, kicking off a new chapter for our waterfront and local tourism economy! Starting this May, ships will dock at a brand-new floating dock at 25 India Street, right by the Seastreak Ferry Terminal.
Phase II of this project, which will include long-term permanent investments to the terminal, will be developed in the near future with American Cruise Lines and our state partners. We're looking forward to welcoming visitors from near and far for generations to come!
Rhode Island’s blue economy is growing — and companies like @regentcraft are at the forefront of that growth. By investing in innovation and workforce development in these emerging industries, we can glide into a strong economic future. #RI2030
New addition to the DEM fleet is a Chevrolet Equinox EV. No gas, no problem!! I’ll be driving this all over Rhode Island to show how we can all take steps to continue to respond to climate change!!
For a long time, people have been sold a false choice: climate versus jobs.
Creating jobs while protecting our climate isn't just possible, it's necessary. And now, it's happening.
Nice morning speaking to high school students participating in the 2024 Model United Nations program- highlighted climate change and ocean plastics as two worldwide environmental challenges very relevant to RI.
RI’s freshwater lakes and ponds are amazing & beautiful natural assets! Spent today on the shores of Echo Lake in Glocester for a DEM team building day!!
DEM does monthly trawl surveys to monitor fish populations in & around Narragansett Bay. Today was a perfect day for one and we took @Kate_mwilkinson from @wpri12 to see how it happens out on the water.
Great couple of days working with other officials from 22 states & 2 territories to develop climate policy for the next decade. The U.S. Climate Alliance provides an opportunity to coordinate with others working to make our future cleaner & sustainable.https://t.co/WzfvnZdqW5
We are on the front lines of a new climate era: a world built on stolen lands, waters, and futures. Without our voices for the oceans and the Earth, our fellow species will vanish in silence. Inspired by “Dark Matter” and the powerful lyrics of @EddieVedder, @Sea_Legacy sounds the alarm for the plight of our planet through the eyes of nature.
