Clean Water Action’s programs reach and involve tens of thousands of Massachusetts residents every year, building a clean water and clean energy future through outreach, education, organizing, advocacy and policy action at the local, state and national levels.
Our state’s landfills and incinerators pollute the air and water of neighboring communities. Unfortunately, Massachusetts produced 6,160,000 tons of waste in 2023, falling short of its own waste reduction goals, and actually increasing 2.7% from 2022 and 8.8% from 2018.
The way we currently produce and use energy in the U.S. significantly contributes to the climate crisis and pollutes our water, air and communities. It also disproportionately harms low-income communities and communities of color.
Toxic chemicals surround us—in our air, water, homes, and workplaces. Many chemicals used in everyday products, like plastics, cosmetics, toys, and furniture, increase the risk of serious illnesses.
