GOGreen's generation gap: Boston
Why tweets won't save the planetPhil Primack (Boston Globe, April 17, 2011) Ah, Earth Day. When green’s calming nature refreshes your soul and its relentless marketing debits your bank account. How different it was during Boston’s first Earth Day on April 22, 1970. That massive call to environmental arms saw teach-ins on several campuses and “a purification rite” to clean the Charles River. More than a dozen demonstrators were arrested during a Logan International Airport “die-in” to protest the air-polluting supersonic jet. Organizers even got motor vehicles banned for the day from Kenmore Square to Government Center.
