In September 2024, the MBTA released its Climate Assessment, taking stock of its climate commitments and work undertaken to date. It articulates a vision for sustainability and resilience at the MBTA. Listen in to a recent MCAN Network meeting where officials from the MBTA discuss the report.

The reading list:

• Slides from the presentation
• Video of the network zoom meeting
• The MBTA Climate Assessment report
• MBTA’s Sustainability page
• MBTA history
• Keolis
• The Kingston Trio sing about Charlie’s woes on the MTA
• Find the current global CO2 ppm here
• How many days ‘til 2030?

Because we recognize the necessity of personal accountability for our actions, because we accept responsibility for a building a durable future and because we believe it is our patriotic duty as citizens to speak out, we must insist the United States transform it’s energy sector, over the next decade, under a just and equitable plan, that uses regulations, investments and a price on carbon that protects environmental justice communities.  

Thanks for listening.
