The natural gas compressor Governor Baker rubber stamped in Weymouth is a ticking time-bomb--an environmental nightmare.
And the shocking revelations in the recent Boston Globe Spotlight story about how the compressor came to be should outrage all of us. Political games, ignoring public health data, sidelining experts, and deleting critical sections of reports are all described in detail, and Charlie Baker is smack in the middle of all of it.
We’ve sent thousands of postcards and petitions--even spent 211 days sitting in his office trying to meet with Baker. At every turn he’s evaded and insulted us, even dismissing us as “the locals” during a press conference. For 6 years, my organization and I have been fighting back. We’ve watched as the Baker administration has swept health and safety concerns under the rug.
