NHBOE meeting on November 13

NHCM members spoke up about our environmental gratitude and concerns as we testified at the NHBOE meeting on November 13 to push for the hiring of climate staff. With the holiday season approaching, we took the time to reflect on things we are grateful for that may not be around a decade or two from now.
