We Can Fight Climate Change Together
Climate change requires us to boldly and urgently act to protect the wildlife and people we love. In response, Mass Audubon has committed to achieving a carbon neutral future in Massachusetts by 2050.
Carbon neutrality, or net zero emissions, means that we don't emit any greenhouse gasses that we can't soak back up out of the atmosphere. To do so entails protecting and conserving natural climate fighting tools, mitigating climate change by reducing and eliminating our greenhouse gas emissions, and amplifying nature's resilience to climate impacts.
We need your help to make this future a reality.

Climate Change in Massachusetts
The impacts of climate change can be seen almost everywhere in Massachusetts.

As climate change increases the frequency and intensity of extreme storm events, flooding is a […]
