Taunton Aries gasification: Scientists weigh in on pollution question

TAUNTON  Aries Clean Technologies and its supporters say its gasification plant, which would deal with the region s sewage sludge and could net millions of dollars for the city, is safe for public health and the environment.  Environmental and public health groups say the opposite, warning that the plant, which would be built on a part of the former landfill site on East Britannia Street, could have toxic air emissions, and would further burden a community that already had to deal with the negative impacts of the landfill, such as smell, noise and pollution.  But what do independent scientists have to say about the plant? 

In The Asthma Capital Of The Country, An Ambitious Air Monitoring Project

3:17   A project will get underway later this year to monitor the air quality in Springfield, Massachusetts – once dubbed the “asthma capital” of the United States.     Sensors will be placed throughout the city to measure air pollution levels and provide information in real time to help people take steps to protect themselves from exposure.   The project is being paid for by the office of Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey with $50,000 from settlement funds paid by polluters.   I give credit to my team for thinking about creative ways to use that settlement money, Healey said.   Healey announced the project during an Earth Day event at Adams Park in Springfield’s Upper Hill neighborhood.
