The climate and energy program uses education, policy, and grassroots advocacy to ensure lowered emissions, to reduce pollution, and to expedite the adoption of practices that strengthen the region's resilience and coastal defenses. We work with partners throughout the region to share information and leverage resources to improve the health of the long island sound, wildlife, and the residents who live, work, and recreate within the watershed.
