Green Jobs in Blue Fields:
Where are They, What are They, and How to Ensure Equitable Access to Them
Where are They, What are They, and How to Ensure Equitable Access to Them
The Green New Deal is about not only taking action to address climate change, but ensuring that as we move toward a more sustainable world, the benefits of green jobs, increased investment in clean energy industries, and clean air, clean water, and open space are shared by all, particularly those that have been most harmed by environmental racism.
When it comes to “green jobs” usually that refers to the clean energy industry, yet there are thousands of good-paying jobs related to the delivery of clean water, disposal of wastewater and management of stormwater.
CRWA decided to take a closer look at what this would mean in terms of employment in the space we occupy: water, wastewater, and green infrastructure.
We pulled together experts in not only these established and growing industries, but also those with expertise connecting young people from low income and minority neighborhoods to good jobs, for a hopeful conversation on how we can do more to deliver a Green New Deal here in the Commonwealth.

Charles River Climate Compact
Many communities across the Charles River watershed are taking proactive steps to adapt to climate change. Even though many cities and towns are allocating resources to climate adaptation, the reality is there are challenges that individual towns cannot address on their own and are more appropriately addressed at a regional scale. Additionally, communities cannot act in a vacuum as the actions of one community will have impacts on neighboring or downstream communities.
In 2019, Charles River Watershed Association (CRWA) launched the Charles River Climate Compact (CRCC). The mission of the CRCC is to bring together communities in the Charles River watershed to work collaboratively on climate adaptation by sharing information and experiences and taking a watershed view of adaptation strategies. Currently, 22 of 35 communities are participating in this regional collaboration.
Learn about what the group has done over the past six months and what our plans are for the future.

Teaching Resilience:
Green Infrastructure and Education
Green Infrastructure and Education
What happens when a watershed group, community decision makers, and schools come together to restore nature in their urban neighborhoods?
In 2015 CRWA partnered with Boston Water and Sewer Commission, Boston Public Schools, and Horsley Witten Group to install Green Infrastructure (GI) at five BPS: Edward M. Kennedy Academy for Health Careers in Fenway, Washington Irving Middle School in Roslindale, Rafael Hernandez School on Roxbury, Jackson Mann School in Brighton, and Ellis Elementary School in Roxbury. Curriculum was also created specifically for 5th and 7th grade science teachers to assist in incorporating GI into their curriculum to educate students. In this webinar, we discuessed the integration of GI and education and its benefits to the community.
CRWA uses GI, a nature based solution that uses vegetation, soil, and other materials to naturally manage stormwater runoff, as a means for creating healthier urban and suburban environments. GI has additional benefits such as increasing biodiversity, assisting with cooling, improvements to air quality, and beautification of neighborhoods.

Managing Stormwater:
MS4 Permit Workshop
MS4 Permit Workshop
Stormwater runoff is a major threat to local waterways that will be significantly exacerbated by our changing climate. A new Massachusetts municipal stormwater (MS4) permit was issued in 2016 that includes special requirements for communities in the Charles River watershed.
CRWA hosted a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit workshop sponsored by Foundation for MetroWest to help our community partners better understand these requirements. Our diverse and experienced speakers addressed many relevant topics including the funding sources, legal analysis, and kicking off your phosphorus control plans. This training was geared towards municipal staff and/or volunteer boards who are responsible for MS4 compliance in one of the thirty-five Charles River municipalities.
Note: While we acknowledged changes made in the amended permit currently out for public comment, this webinar did not focus on changes made in the amended permit.

Restoring a Living River:
Past, Present, and Future of Dams on the Charles
Past, Present, and Future of Dams on the Charles
Tune into a lively and informative presentation and discussion about dams on the Charles River, what CRWA is doing to promote their removal, and how you can help.
Early settlers relied heavily on dams to provide power for industry. As a result thousands of dams were constructed on waterways across the Commonwealth. Today, these relics remain, typically offering no benefit to society, but still impeding river connectivity and degrading water quality and wildlife habitat. Many of these aged structures are in poor condition and are vulnerable to breaches from intensified storms, and increased precipitation caused by climate change. This hazard puts downstream residents and infrastructure at risk. CRWA was involved in the removal of the Old Mill Dam in Bellingham on the main stem of the Charles River in 2016. Now, we are working with local and state officials to assess the feasibility of removing other dams in our watershed, including the Watertown Dam and the South Natick Dam.

Climate Resilience for Activists
You're concerned about climate change. You support more solar, more wind, more public transit, maybe you've even urged your political leaders to invest in these, and other ways to speed our transition to a clean energy future. But what about climate resilience? We know that even if we were to stop using fossil fuels tomorrow, many changes are already baked in - more storms, more extreme weather, more heat, more drought. What can be done to protect ourselves and our communities from the changes we already know are coming?
Many of the most effective and inexpensive solutions to building climate resilience involve bringing nature back into our built environment. Such nature-based solutions include restoring urban tree canopy, restoring wetlands, daylighting buried streams, and installing “green infrastructure,” such as bioswales, rain gardens, and permeable pavers that absorb water, thereby reducing stormwater runoff and flooding and recharging aquifers. Not only do these solutions offer protection, they offer co-benefits of cleaner air, cleaner water, and the psychological benefit we all get from living in and around green space. Especially in the Covid-19 era, we are seeing the value of nature to our mental health.

From Dirty Water to a Clean Charles:
Victory of Science & Data Over Conventional Wisdom
Victory of Science & Data Over Conventional Wisdom
Bob Zimmerman served as Executive Director of CRWA from 1990 to 2018. When he began his tenure, the Charles River was literally used as a dumping ground for sewage and industrial pollutants. Today, US EPA considers the Charles River to be the cleanest urban river in the nation, and the Charles River and CRWA were the 2011 winners of the International River Foundation’s Theiss International Riverprize.
Bob did not come into the job with a background in science. He has a master’s degree in English, and prior to CRWA he had founded a winter sports academy. What he did bring was a skepticism of conventional wisdom, and belief in science. In the early 1990s the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA) said the Charles River is dirty, and that the public should accept that it would never meet swimming and boating standards.

Allston Multimodal Project
Pallavi Kalia Mande of Charles River Watershed Association and Ari Ofsevit of Transit Matters convened on Thursday, April 16, 2020 for a discussion about the project to redesign the Mass Pike’s Allston interchange.
Sometimes referred to as “the next Big Dig,” this project would straighten the Mass Pike at the Allston interchange and improve transit with an additional commuter rail stop. The potential benefits include increased parkland, expanded public access to the Charles River, and converting an abandoned rail yard into a vibrant neighborhood.
But as the saying goes, “the devil is in the details.” Do we really need to put a road *into* the Charles River? Do we really need to replicate the current number of car travel lanes?
