Support Our Work |
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.
With our deep roots in advocacy, we effect change in policies at the local, state, and federal levels to reach carbon neutrality by 2050.
To achieve our carbon neutral goal, we need to fight climate change at its source by reducing and eliminating greenhouse gas emissions.
We engage Massachusetts communities at all ages to build bridges between climate science and climate action.
Mass Audubon's Climate Action Strategy is an organizational roadmap that supports Massachusetts in achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
The impacts of climate change can be seen almost everywhere in Massachusetts. Oceans, freshwater, forest, and urban habitats are all impacted by the crisis, and its effects range from harming human health and increasing exposure to extreme weather to hurting our wildlife, like pollinators, shellfish, and birds.
Climate change amplifies existing threats while introducing new dangers to the world around us. It's up to us to come together and fight so we can protect people and wildlife alike.

Currently, many people rely on fossil fuels for most of their energy needs. Fossil fuels are finite resources—such as coal, oil, and natural gas—found in the earth and release excess greenhouse gases into the atmosphere – […]
