‼️ BPDA Bait-and-Switch ALERT ‼️ Civic/cultural space at 232 A Street is being approved as a voluntary commitment, not an obligation. In other words, the space can be commercialized at any point, at owner's discretion. cc @JAJemison2 @karaeo Weasel words in BPDA legalese. 👇🏽

A 9-year old East Boston girl is fighting for her life in critical condition, injured in the recent East Boston fire. Her single mother lost everything & we need prayers that she pulls through & every bit of donation to help the family. Everything helps! gofundme.com/f/support-karin…

We don’t need more artificial turf nor let our children play in it. We need real grass with real soil! @CityOfBoston remember when you turned the beautiful natural lawn at LoPresti Park in Eastie by the waterfront into artificial turf? ceh.org/latest/press-release…

The first right whale calf of the season has been found dead in Georgia after being severely injured by a boat. Updated vessel speed regulations could have saved this three-month-old baby. ow.ly/iirj50QLEYX

In an incredibly rare event, our #AndersonCabotCenter aerial survey team spotted a gray whale off the New England coast last week, a species that has been extinct in the Atlantic for more than 200 years! 😮 More: bit.ly/49EydNl #AerialSurvey #GrayWhale

This project is an unparalleled opportunity to reimagine the western gateway to Boston. It would set a national standard in how to use once-in-a-generation federal funding to overhaul last century’s car-centric transportation system. ow.ly/buQV50QIfoN

Big Oil & the plastics industry deceived the public for decades about the recyclability of plastics. Read new findings from @climatecosts for why officials should hold these companies accountable for the fraud of plastic recycling. ow.ly/VLiw50QHXwx

Pledged to build a library? An empty room isn’t a library. In 2008, Seaport Square master developer pledged to deliver a public library and 200-seat school with approval of 6.3msf of new buildings. In 2010, two 5,000sf empty rooms were approved. In 2017… Gotta love the Globe.

For years, Maine lobstermen have insisted there's no evidence their ropes were entangling critically endangered North Atlantic right whales. Today, @NOAA released evidence linking their ropes to the death of a young female found recently off the Vineyard. shorturl.at/uxNOZ

Boston has 1,000 miles of roads. 1.75% have a protected bike like and 1.4% have a bus lane. In the 2010s, Greater Boston added ≈60,000 net new vehicles to the roads every year. Boston's traffic is not a result of bus & bike lanes. Boston's traffic is caused by too many cars.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: 🚨 NOAA announced the young right whale who washed ashore on Martha's Vineyard was killed by entanglement in Maine fishing gear. We must continue to provide training and funding for ropeless fishing gear to protect vulnerable whales. ow.ly/oRYK50QBmOI

Thrilled to have Sandra Nijar & John Walkey of @LoganCleanAir interviewed by @reillyadam on @GBHNews. East Boston's @Massport CEO job description demands sensitivity to @BostonLogan's impact on the community. @maura_healey do you agree? Full video here: youtube.com/watch?v=oH7QIVm_…
