Our Purpose

Mission Statement: A grassroots advocacy organization, the Boston Clean Energy Coalition (BCEC) wants to create an organizing space that accelerates efforts in Boston to transition to a clean, green economy. BCEC currently focuses on halting the expansion of fracked gas and other fossil-fuel infrastructure while promoting net-zero carbon standards for the built environment. We believe this goal can be achieved only by fostering collaboration among all sectors, including city and private developers, community stakeholders, architects, financial investors, academia, labor, environmentalists, and faith-based organizations. We seek strong, democratic, political leadership and a process that develops sound public policy, recognizing that both require constant vigilance and a concerned eye on our future.
