Stow’s climate change plans are focus of 11/16 Sustainable Stow/Randall Library talk

Stow has established a Green Advisory Committee to help the town plan for climate change. A major focus of the committee is the creation of a Climate Action Plan. The plan will identify actions the town will take over the next eight years to enable Stow to meet the state’s 2030 greenhouse gas reduction targets. These actions require participation from the entire town as well as state and federal support.

On November 16 at 7 p.m., Sustainable Stow and Randall Library are hosting the Green Advisory Committee at their monthly series of talks on Zoom. The meeting offers an overview of the committee, its work, and the key challenges. Presenters will also ask for your input at the meeting and through a survey on town climate actions.

You can find out more about the Green Advisory Committee on the Stow Town website, stow-ma.gov under Boards & Committees and attend their bimonthly committee meetings. Or contact them directly at GreenAdvisory@stow-ma.gov.

Vigil and candle lighting to condemn antisemitic vandalism and hate

Members of our community are rightly outraged by acts of vandalism against any of our neighbors. The Lake Boon Association also strongly condemns the antisemitic vandalism that occurred this past weekend on North Shore Drive. See https://www.stow-ma.gov/home/news/stow-police-department-investigating-antisemitic-vandalism

We want to support all in our community. As a show of support we can join the wider community at the First Parish Church of Stow & Acton Vigil Against Hate today, Tuesday, Nov. 8, starting at 5:30 p.m., on the Stow Town Upper Common in front of the library.

In addition, our Lake Boon community can show local support by placing candles in windows around the lake this evening.
