The Nantucket Conservation Foundation and the Linda Loring Nature Foundation collaborate to bring Climate Change awareness and education to Nantucket.

In September 2023, we launched Nantucket’s Climate Change Summit to explore and discuss local impacts and actions on the island. Join us this winter to keep the education and conversation going!

As an evolution of our previous Nantucket Coastal Ecology Class, join us for a series of FREE Zoom Lectures and in-person field trips bringing Climate Change information to the public.
