Welcome to Greenovate Boston

Every Bostonian has a role to play in making our city a healthy, thriving, and innovative city in a changing climate. Greenovate Boston connects community members to climate planning efforts as well as to programs and resources that support taking action at home, work, school, and around your neighborhood.

Greenovate Community Leaders play a critical role raising awareness of climate change and promoting climate action by hosting facilitated dialogues where family members, friends, and/or colleagues learn about what’s at stake and what’s being done by the City.

We are going to talking about:

  • What climate change means for Bostonians
  • What you can do to address climate change
  • What resources are available to help you prepare
