The Boston Globe has taken up climate change in line with the crisis that it is! Please see their new climate series labeled “Into the Red: Climate and the fight of our lives.’’ [https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/01/20/science/into-red-how-globe-will-cover-climate-change/]
Some quotes from the recent Boston Globe article highlight the importance of the choice you as Town leaders are called to make about hiring a Sustainability Director for Bedford:
“Now we stand on the cusp of too late — and must decide how to respond.”
“The decisions made by elected officials, business leaders, and private citizens in coming years will reverberate for centuries.”
“That is especially true here, in our state and region. Some of the best minds and institutions at work on the climate problem are here.”
I and all mothers fearful for their children’s future ask that you step wholeheartedly into making big changes on their behalf to save their climate. In Bedford, that first step is to invest in a full-time Sustainability Director that can coordinate easily across all Town departments. The net financial gain to the Town makes it an easy decision for you all.
Thank you for your leadership for our fabulous Town of Bedford!
