Metropolitan Beaches Commission

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.
