BOSTON – On Tuesday, Governor Maura T. Healey and Lieutenant Governor Kimberley Driscoll will visit UMass Dartmouth to learn more about the school’s work around climate sustainability and how it relates to the administration’s climate, education, and economic and workforce development goals.

UMass Dartmouth has been named one of the nation’s most environmentally responsible colleges for 11 years in row.

Healey’s Office stated that the college has upgraded 22,000 outdated light bulbs to high-efficiency bulbs over the past few years, reducing emissions by 3%. They also developed one of the first Carbon Reduction Plans in the state and recently sent a student to the North Pole as part of an international team collecting oceanographic data around the Arctic Ocean.

In addition to Governor Healey and Lieutenant Governor Driscoll, cabinet secretaries, local officials, Chancellor Mark Fuller, UMass Dartmouth administrators, faculty and students will also be attending the roundtable discussion.

    So many pressing matters at hand and this takes precedence? They changed lightbulbs? That’s newsworthy? My job runs on solar and has all high efficient lightbulbs when should I expect a visit?

    What a farce. What happened to the windmill the University installed ? That thing stood still more than a statue. It sputtered oil sometimes. Killed a few birds. Cost $$$ to install and maintain and run in general. But we don’t talk about that. Let’s talk about the power plant that still houses the police dept. the power plant is a cogeneration plant that will pay back in 30 years. What a laugh. But yeah, let’s meet.

    Here we go … this is what Massachusetts fools voted for. This nasty, depraved leftist who publicly advocated for (as a sitting Attorney General) the rioting and the burning down of cities to appease the wild and vicious George Floyd mobs ; is starting all in with the “Climate” scam. Yeah, sure .. life-long Hack Politicians and unlimited taxpayer funds can alter the dynamics of global atmospheric climate

    I guess these geniuses above haven’t noticed that this is the warmest winter ever after the previous warmest winter ever and the other previous warmest winter ever. We have the fastest acceleration of temperatures in the history of the Earth and scientists can easily prove humans are causing it. I guess none of them have children or they don’t care about their children. I take it they’re all poor and struggling because and not bright enough to have a career. Somehow that’s everybody else’s fault and they paid no attention in school and today know nothing about history, health or the environment. The only thing they believe in is conspiracy theories and whatever QAnon tells them.

      We just had the ‘warmest winter ever’ and an even warmer winter ever before that warmest winter ??How do you know? Did Senator Edward Markey (the dumbest U.S. Senator ever … other than Joe Biden) tell you ?
      Or did you study at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences Department (EAPS). If the real atmospheric scientists could speak freely without retribution from the vile leftists in this country, they all conclude that ‘change’ trends in the climate over thousands of years are subjectively measured and admit that essentially the ‘climate’ has been politicized as a tool gather more power over society and dumb-downed nitwits like yourself

      Idiot. Ever hear of the jet stream? Look up the magnetic pole shift. Stop being a monkey in an echo chamber. The elites will keep flying private and you’ll walk to the market. Stop saying scientific proof. Look at the Covid19 Vax damages. But scientists said it was safe. You are nothing but a dis-info warrior. An ANTIFA Goon. A modern day Bozo the 🤡.

        Everything you just said is a lie and miss information. How does one person become so suckered? So what’s your IQ level? Are you smart enough to be a scientist? What legitimate, again legitimate information do you have to prove otherwise? Where do you get your news from? Just curious where you get so much misinformation if it isn’t QAnon? Funny how the death rate from COVID is much higher in all of the red states. Prove me wrong coward. You can’t because all you can do is pull bullshit out of your ass!

          You can’t even spell. You have failed. More Messianic garbage from the mouth of a complete moron. I’d be willing to bet you’re a redcoat bastard, with marching orders from the bowels of the Administrative State. Your rhetoric is tiring, void of any facts and echoing from all of the lamestream media. I have personally canceled you which is why you’ve changed your lame moniker. You are an Oracle of the toilet bowl!

          Just watched a local Boston News Station repeat exactly what I wrote about the Jet Stream. If you could stop with your liberal hysterics for two seconds you might learn something. That’s the problem with liberalism, you are the true Nazis and the founders of the KKK. All you progressives seek is control. There are many of us whom you’ll never have control, you weak cowardly bastards. Good luck Oralcle!

      Hey fool you just proved that if we regulate we could fix the environment. We eliminated CFCs worldwide and now the ozone layer is making a comeback! Now how you connect this with climate change I have no idea. But hey you think you’re smarter than somebody who did 8 years of University. You’re a good example of somebody who thinks there much smarter than they really are.

        CNN the home of Russian Collusion! What a total loser you are! I knew you would cite the CNN story as credible. Judge a man by his enemies. Alex Jones is an American Hero. CNN is pure garbage propaganda and agit-prop.

        Indoctrination is the word you’re looking for. You have zero clue about my level of intelligence yet you speak as if you’ve done a case study of me. Typical liberal ignoramus. You’ve been alive for such a limited time that any data you come up with is meaningless. How old is earth? No kidding you don’t know? It’s all theory just like the global warming fraud. How will Carbon Credits and Taxes save the Earth? If you really want to help save Earth from life giving C02 then why don’t you eliminate yourself as a C02 producing Zombie? You liberals are all the same, arrogance filled know it alls who desire complete control over those with whom you disagree. I’m sure your student loans are due but you want the rest of America’s taxpayers to foot the bill. Funny with all this supposed education you can’t even earn or save a dollar. Making yourself look like a joke is really working out well as I’m sure you’re living well in your Mom’s market rate basement apartment. You are way out of your league with me. Reason being is that you already know it all. You are not willing to think anymore. I will outsurvive you because you depend on the government. My ancestors are pioneers while yours are servants of the Administrative State. You are one of the true useless eaters, while I am the Hunter. Yes you probably worship a Hunter, only it’s a Biden. Oh yeah that was Russian dis-info and a Trump campaign product, right? The leftist radical echo-chamber you inhabit is boring and predictable. There is no thought involved with anything you say, just mindless regurgitation.
