Business Leaders for Climate Action

About BLCA

Business Leaders for Climate Action is a network of forward thinking businesses, associations, and industry leaders calling for Massachusetts to put a price on carbon.

Carbon pricing is quickly becoming “the new normal” across the country and the globe. In the US, 17 states either already have campaigns underway to put a price on carbon or are initiating them. Massachusetts has a tradition of leadership on major issues from abolition to women’s suffrage to healthcare. We can make history again by demonstrating that this innovative policy will not only reduce emissions but also improve our economy. Our leadership will help move policy forward in other states and at the federal level, showcasing Massachusetts at the forefront.

BLCA welcomes all businesses to our network to join the conversation, participate in monthly calls, and receive periodic updates on our campaign. Click here to connect with us.
