Massachusetts Climate Action Network

Have you heard of “Decarbonizers”? 🌱 It’s a peer-to-peer program that helps neighbors empower neighbors to make real climate progress, and it works for any community, landlords included.

Although Massachusetts has made strides with solar, EVs, and heat pumps, we have a long way to go. And right now, peer influence is one of the most powerful motivators of change.

On June 1st at noon, MCAN President Fred Davis is hosting a virtual training on how to organize a Decarbonizers program in your community. Training + Q&A for the first hour, then open discussion until 1:30.

Reminder: this important conversation is happening next week! 🌎🏗️

Since 2023, Toronto has led the continent with a groundbreaking standard for embodied carbon in new construction. What can Massachusetts climate advocates learn from the “Toronto approach” and how can it help shape policy here at home?

Join us on Wednesday, May 20 at 12 PM for a virtual presentation with Ryan Zizzo, Founder & CEO of Mantle Climate, whose work directly supported Toronto’s Green Standard. Ryan will share how the policy came to be, the impact it’s already having, and what it could mean for future advocacy in Massachusetts.

🕛 Presentation & Q&A: 12–1 PM
🎤 Open Discussion: 1–1:30 PM

Free and open to all. RSVP at massclimateaction.org/may_networks_meeting
