For positive gains to curb climate control problems by development and implementing strategies to address them.

This commitment is both ambitious and essential to ensuring climate change resulting in a resilient and prosperous future for Boston.

Both CAP and CEED, after assessing dozens of city climate action and resilience plans found Mayor Walsh’s Resilience Boston plan puts forth the most comprehensive, action-oriented strategy that serves as a model for other cities.

Boston has implemented several plans and initiatives, leading the way on equitable climate resiliency including: Imagine Boston 2030, Resilient Boston, Climate Ready Boston, Climate Ready Boston Leaders, Greenovate Boston, The Boston Community Energy Study and Zero Waste Boston.
