95% of US banks are either "neutral" or actively harmful to our climate through their investments of YOUR money in fossil fuels. Chase and Bank of America also remain major financiers supplying arms to Israel for the #PalestineGenocide. Learn how to #DropYourDirtyBank: xrboston.org/drop-your-di...

This morning, activists greeted Boston commuters with banners along Storrow Drive. Bank of America, Chase, Citi, and Wells Fargo directly fund the climate crisis & genocide. #DropDirtyBanks today! Full press release: xrboston.org/press/activi...

Did you spot the familiar airfield in The Handmaid’s Tale: Season 6, Episode 9? That's right, villains store their private jets at Massport's Hanscom Field. If we stop the proposed hangar expansion, we stop the Commanders of Gilead from flying off with our futures. #NoPrivateJetExpansion

When would-be developers of Hanscom Field’s proposed expansion argued “ferry flight reduction” would balance out an additional 6,000 private jet flights annually (2024 IEc Report), Chuck Collins from @inequality.org ‬at IPS came to @gbhnews.bsky.social with the facts. Learn more at spje.org.

“Climate is a multiplier of the cost of living crisis,” points out @jbozuwa.bsky.social of @cplusc.bsky.social.

“We actually can build an alternative — in state rent control, green affordable housing. It’s not a climate movement, it’s a working class movement of which climate is a part.”

#ClimateActionNow

Our friend, climate scientist Rose Abramoff @ultracricket.bsky.social, is speaking out on behalf of the 21 activists who spent 13 months in court, persecuted for protesting proposed expansion of private jet infrastructure at #Hanscom Field. @massgovernor.bsky.social when will you take a stand?

Last week, Brian Okum faced felony charges in Concord Court for protesting the proposed expansion of private jet infrastructure at Hanscom Field. If convicted, he would have received the first felony conviction for climate activism in MA history.

we can't let "environmental groups" like the Environmental League of Massachusetts celebrate the climate criminals putting millions of lives on the line. And we didn't

Gov Healey ran down an emergency stairwell instead of answering our simple question: "do you choose billionaires or your constituents?"

the Hanscom Airfield Expansion reverses decades of climate progress in MA so the ultra rich can fly in private jets and destroy our future

XR rebels gather on the front steps of the Massachusetts statehouse

activists carrying XR flags, and a sign which says "better wet now than drowning later"

rebels holding tombstones which read "killed by floods", "killed by hurricanes" and "killed by landslides"

Despite the rain last Saturday, hundreds of rebels took to the streets to demand that our elected officials in Massachusetts stand up to Trump and the billionaires he gives free license to destroy our planet. For all of our collective survival, we need a government which puts people over profit!
