What Our Members Are Saying
I was feeling apprehensive about our future with the looming climate emergency and decided to do something about it. I joined 350 Mass. Being part of the solution gave me a feeling of agency and I developed a lot of new friends along the way too.
When I joined the North Shore Node I was amazed to find so many ways to be involved. From lobbying and building relationships with my legislators to holding polluters accountable, to standing in solidarity with other groups in their struggles. We teach each other, we support each other and we have found a new confidence in the possibility of a fossil free future. And we have fun!
When I went shopping for an organization to save the livability of our planet, 350Mass won hands down. Its grassroots structure and sky high aspirations were the blend I was looking for. Have also made friends for life here.
