Green Communities Act
The Green Communities Act, enacted in Massachusetts in 2008, aims to promote energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources. It provides municipalities with support and resources to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, enhance energy efficiency in public buildings, and encourage sustainable practices. The Act also facilitates financial incentives for communities to invest in clean energy technologies, ultimately aiming to create healthier environments and reduce energy costs. By empowering local governments and residents, it fosters a transition toward a more sustainable future.
