BCAN received a grant in 2011 to hire a bi-cultural, bi-lingual full-time staff member for 6 months and to increase the group's role as a network hub in greater Boston, linking neighborhood-based organizations with sustainability missions throughout Boston and beyond.
Boston Climate Action Network
Our Purpose
Summary of Projects
BCAN received a grant in 2010 to harness the power of neighbor-to-neighbor connections to increase community empowerment, conserve financial and natural resources, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and increase the number of good, local jobs in the energy efficiency field through organizing three "green blocks" in Jamaica Plain, MA.
In 2007 BCAN received a grant to build a grassroots network of Boston residents who understand that global warming has both global and local effects, that local action is both possible and needed, and that by becoming politically involved they can help mitigate the effects of global warming.
