Great to hear about coordination on climate work from both Gov @maura_healey and @MayorWu at this morning’s @BosGreenRibbon meeting. @BU_Tweets’s Net-Zero masterpiece was a perfect location.

Was at ⁦@CityHallBoston⁩ earlier this week. Now that it’s Spring, the Plaza renovations look even better. Can’t wait for the trees to grow.

Talk about the ultimate “news dump” - not just any Friday but Good Friday heading into Easter. Did this carefully chosen ideological Trump judge think the nation wouldn’t notice? #outrage #newsdump #mifepristone washingtonpost.com/politics/…

Elon Musk is deleting accounts that post this video of him being booed for 10 minutes last night at a Dave Chapelle show. He can’t delete us all. Retweet while you still can. xitter.cf/MikeSington/status/160…

RE developers take note: the @CityOfBoston has released a Request for Qualifications for Off-Site Renewable Electricity Supply. The RFQ does not specify a particular type of generating resource (wind/solar/hydro/etc.) but does require that it be a 0-emissions MA Class I resource.

#Boston supports #Ukraine. How apt that this demonstration encircles #GeorgeWashington, given Volodymyr #Zelenskyy’s leadership in this war for Ukraine’s independence.
“Justice Thomas, why are you such a hater?” Wow! #SupremeCourt
We are so very lucky to have @RepJeffries as a public servant in this country. Listen to the very end. He says exactly the right things here.

Excited to see the 2nd Renew Boston Trust performance contract underway. With buildings and lighting work, this self-funding program is projected to bring &125M improvements to @CityOfBoston . @MayorWu @BostonEnviro @BostonPWD
You may think this is a tourist weirdly taking photos of light fixtures. But this is Travis, Lead GIS Field Technician! Through Renew Boston Trust, folks are collecting data of exterior lighting to identify ways to reduce electricity & natural gas usage. boston.gov/environment-and-e…

The @nytimes made a beautiful choice in publishing news of #QueenElizabeth’s death. Front pages can capture and hold deep feelings of a monumental day. This headline and visual helped me this morning to take a deep breath and to accept that we are in fact in a new era.
The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon. The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.
