Since the summer of 2017, Green Acton has been advocating for a town-wide sustainability policy to be implemented. On December 10, 2018, the Board of Selectmen reviewed and passed the third draft of a proposed Acton Sustainability Policy, written by Green Acton.

Green Acton was thanked for its role in creating the original drafts, and commenting on subsequent ones as well. The Acton Beacon covered the process of approving the policy here: http://boxborough.wickedlocal.com/news/20181213/acton-board-of-selectmen-approve-environmental-sustainability-policy

Agreeing to this policy commits the Town to creating and agreeing on specific goals for environmental sustainability, and plans for achieving them. Green Acton will follow this process closely, and advocate for the strongest possible goals and plans.
