Environment

29th, 6 to 8 pm, Old South Meeting House, 310 Washington

The outcome of this
November's gubernatorial election may have
profound effects on the Massachusetts environment,
due to the obvious importance of the state environmental
agencies under the governor's control. ELM and other
environmental organizations are planning a gubernatorial
forum for June 29th to ask the candidates about their
views on environmental issues. Governor Patrick and
Green party candidate Jill Stein have already confirmed,
and we are in communications with the other candidates.
This will be a fascinating event in an historic
setting. Will you join us? This is a free event, but
seating is limited so RSVP to::
