Greater Boston Climate Action Plan

Partners across the Metro Boston region are working together to develop a regional roadmap to rapidly drive down greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, slow the impacts of climate change, and realize near-term community benefits. Benefits of reducing carbon pollution across multiple sectors include: Improvements to air quality and public health; Increase of local, clean energy jobs; Reduction and stabilization of energy costs; and Improvements to public transportation and walkability. This multi-year planning process includes three phases of work 1) Priority Climate Action Plan (PCAP) that establishes a near-term plan for action by 2030, 2) Comprehensive Climate Action Plan (CCAP) that covers a broader range of sectors, and 3) a Status Report in 2027 on progress made towards implementation. You can view the PCAP here. A final CCAP will be completed in Fall 2025.
