Our Work 4
Research & Outreach Our work started with compiling data across over thirty municipalities to find candidates with bold environmental plans in targeted districts across Massachusetts. Using SurveyMonkey, we communicated with every candidate to research their plans for environmental action. 5
Candidate Forums We held exciting candidate forums for Boston At-Large and Boston District 9 to foster engagement on issues in energy and environment. (and enjoyed some delicious bakery goods while doing so). 6
Campaign Work We helped 14 endorsed candidates secure a victory through direct campaign action. We knocked doors, made phone-calls, sent out texts, and developed creative strategies to assist campaigns. 7
Issue Advocacy We attended events across Massachusetts, such as the Democratic Convention, to advocate for key environmental issues. This fall, we worked to advocate for Offshore Wind. 8
