A handful of climate bills failed to pass in Connecticut this legislative session. At least 16 chemical drums have been discovered at Bethpage Community Park so far. Peconic Bay Scallop numbers are still a concern for scientists. A fiery head-on crash closed both sides of the Merritt Parkway for hours Thursday morning. And WSHU’s new podcast Off the Plank brings us a pirate story of one of the biggest treasures in recorded history.
