In 2023, the Metropolitan Beaches Commission hosted the first in a series of public hearings to establish a set of best practices to address climate change along the coast from Nahant to Nantasket.

With the goal of creating a continuous resilient coastline, the hearing featured local and regional climate experts, elected officials, as well as nonprofit and community leaders. Hearing topics included nature-based solutions, gaps in current climate adaptation and mitigation plans, and opportunities for collaboration between communities and cities in the metropolitan Boston area.

Save the Harbor / Save The Bay proudly continues this vital initiative to better connect communities with the climate impact resources while amplifying the voices which seek to preserve and improve the Boston Harbor beaches.
