Gather at Sterns Square at 5:15 pm sharp ( please arrive a few minutes early) for a street theater performance and call to action, followed by a mini-march to the Eversource Open House at Tower Square.
Eversource Gas Open House and Listening Session at UMass Center at Tower Square in Springfield on August 7th at 6pm to take a concrete step towards getting their permits and building this toxic and dangerous pipeline expansion project.
Springfield Climate Justice Coalition is once again calling on people in Western Mass and beyond to stand with us as we send a powerful message to the Healey administration, elected officials and Eversource Gas: “We do not want Eversource to build a polluting pipeline that would run through environmental justice residential neighborhoods, and dangerously close to schools and community hubs in Springfield!”.
The Open House (6 to 8 pm) will consist of a short presentation by Eversource, followed by Q & A. Eversource will be providing food and child care, as well as language interpretation in Spanish and Russian. We need the place packed with opponents of this dangerous project, raising all the questions Eversource wants avoided.
In addition, SCJC is organizing a dynamic outdoor event before the Open House, calling public attention to the dangers of this project and Eversource’s deceitful and self-serving intent in building it.
We will gather at 5:15 pm sharp in Stearns Square (one block north on Bridge St) for a street theater performance and call to action, followed by a mini-march to the Eversource Open House at Tower Square.
It is time to rise up and take power back from energy corporations who profit while poisoning our communities, polluting our air, and pocketing more of our hard earned money. Our future lies in a rapid and just transition to clean electric heat and cooling powered by clean, renewable energy.
