On Energy & Oil: Transform the state completely by pursuing renewable energy

Environmentalist and entrepreneur Robert Massie says he's running for governor in 2018. Massie was most recently head of the University of Massachusetts Boston's Sustainable Solutions Lab--which focuses on climate change research and preparedness.

Among Massie's top priorities is bringing more sustainable energy options to the state, which he said will create new jobs and boost a new sector of the economy. He said, "We have an opportunity to transform the state completely by pursuing renewable energy at a much faster rate, like what's going on across the world."

"I think it's about vision and leadership," he said. "Can you lay out a future for the state , drawing from the millions of wonderful ideas that people have , and have Massachusetts become again a leading force in the United States, pushing us towards a new economy that creates new jobs and is much more fair."
