Ways you can be Climate Conscious (and why it matters!)

• Reducing, reusing, and recycling minimizes waste and our carbon footprint.
  • Bring reusable containers: coffee mugs, water bottles, food containers, etc.
  • Our community recycles, but we’re still working on infrastructure to make recycling easy for visitors. Search out a recycling receptacle at a local business – or just bring your recycling home.
• Carpooling, sharing rides and taking advantage of local EV charging stations all help reduce carbon emissions.
• Eating locally not only sustains local businesses but also reduces carbon emissions when food doesn’t have to travel far to be enjoyed. Learn more about eating locally here.
• Supporting conservation organizations helps preserve and protect the Mahoosuc region’s vast ecosystems and the environmental services they provide. Check out these local groups: Mahoosuc Land Trust, Inland Woods and Trails, Western Foothills Land Trust, and Androscoggin River Watershed Council.
