Getting to Net Zero

MA has some of the strongest climate laws in the nation, including a requirement to reach net zero by 2050. But passing strong laws is only the beginning. We need sustained investment, complementary policy action, and effective implementation. 

NetZeroMA.org tracks the most consequential climate decisions, focusing on actions that affect communities both today and in the years ahead. Created by the ELM, the site serves as an accountability hub that provides expert analysis to show where MA is making progress and where leaders are falling short.
