Our purpose is to halt the climate crisis. We support the rapid transition to a sustainable, equitable, energy economy that sustains all life.  A group of Canton residents began organizing in 2015 around concern for our health, safety and planet when Enbridge (then Spectra) sought to build Access Northeast, a high pressure fracked gas pipeline project that would run directly through Canton. We joined forces with other environmental justice organizations and many other groups like ours across Massachusetts, to stop Access Northeast and other pipeline infrastructure projects. Since that time, we have broadened our mission to engage local residents to play a role in halting the rapidly escallating climate crisis and mitigate it effects by promoting thoughtful action, education, organizing and agitation to help swell participation and foster unity in the growing climate justice movements.  We stand with frontline communities and those most disparately and heavily impacted by climate change locally, nationally and globally. We seek collaboration with groups to rapidly transition to a renewable, resilient and equitable society and economy to sustain a livable environment. Most recently we initiated a plastic bag restriction resolution. We are planning Canton GreenFest: The Time Is Now, engaging our community, with a focus on local high school students, to build support for replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy.
