FM #905 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 905 in the series.
This session of the radio show shares my conversation with Ted McIntyre, Franklin resident and climate activist via the Zoom conference bridge Monday, December 19, 2022.
In this episode we covered the following topics:
East Boston Olmsted park now part of airport
NY Times mapping impacts
University study funding questioned
Texas oil funding objections to New England wind efforts
Activists and ISO New England
NY Times interactive survey fosters discussion
This discussion continues our journey understanding the MA roadmap toward net zero and while it helps me “make sense of climate”, we hope it helps with your understanding as well.
If you have climate questions or Franklin specific climate questions, send them in and we’ll try to answer them in a future session.
The conversation runs about 43 minutes. Let’s listen to my conversation with Ted
