Mass climate change bill updates emission goals, environmental justice

BOSTON – Gov. Charlie Baker now has a climate change bill on his desk that represents the state s first major legislative effort in a dozen years to address one of the most pressing issues of our time. On Monday night, both the Senate and the House passed a bill known as the Next-Generation Roadmap for Massachusetts Climate Policy by wide margins, with only two senators objecting and just nine of 154 representatives voting against the bill, which updates the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2008. “Yesterday, the Legislature met the moment and passed generational legislation that gets Massachusetts to net-zero carbon emissions by 2050,” state Sen. Julian Cyr, D-Truro, said Tuesday. “In the process, we advance justice for the communities who spent decades bearing the brunt of our collective environmental neglect.”

Bourne, Truro among towns reporting outages Christmas Day

Cape Cod Times Cape residents braced themselves for high winds and heavy rain late Christmas Eve into Christmas morning, but the Cape and Islands largely avoided any fallout from the weather. Police and fire officials across the Cape reported little other than routine calls Friday morning, and Eversource reported only scattered power outages across the region, according the utility’s online outage map. Households in Bourne in the area of Mares Pond were among those most affected by wind and rain late Thursday night into Friday morning. There were about 160 homes in the area without power as of 7:30 a.m. Friday, all of which had power restored by 10 a.m. Fewer than five homes in Sandwich were without power early Friday morning, according to Eversource.
