This is a great public service. thank you very much! Planning to attend either the Belmont or Watertown event.
What is the Commonwealth of Massachusetts doing currently to address ocean pollution. At the moment, enormous quantities of fishing gear ends up adrift, and not by accident but by design. Mangled chicken wire traps wash up every 20 years on Horseneck beach for example. The recreational and commercial fishing industry are wantonly discarding hooks, nylon line and nets, and the burgeoning clean up efforts are beginning to show the extent of this calamity. Are we regulating this? Can we please? And then there are the draggers. All of this needs to stop.
every 20 yards, I meant to say
We passed major ocean protection legislation several years ago.
For current efforts, please see this link.
Thank you for making yourself so available.
Something I think you might be interested in addressing: The problem of single use plastic bags in commerce.
Many of these end up in waterways of one kind or another, where they destroy marine life

Yes. This is an area of continuing legislative interest. Have not been able to get a statewide bill done, but there are lots of localities that have passed measures.
66 Marlboro Street As a senior (still spry and alert, but no spring chicken) I find it scary that cars are allowed to turn at intersections when the red/yellow walk light is on. I no longer cross at intersections but jaywalk in the middle of the block. It’s safer! On a one-way street I only have to look in one direction for oncoming cars. At many intersections have to look 4 ways.
Yes. Pedestrian safety is threatened by increasing congestion. A major area of continuing concern for me.
