Boston’s North Shore, including Cape Ann, is no stranger to resource controversy, and the roots of the land and water protectors are as long as those of the mill and fishing industries.
From the Ipswich and Hampshire Rivers, to the Great Marsh and other coastal jewels, and inland to coastal forests and suburban parks that complete this thickly-settled region of Massachusetts, numerous
green businesses, organizations, and developments thrive.

Local North Shore Heroes, Neil and Martha Chayet
 When attorney Neil Chayet of CBS Radio’s “Looking at the Law” and

LEED-certified, and at the Silver Level.
These GoGreen Local Heroes—the first in our new series highlighting people in Massachusetts that have stepped up to address climate change—transformed a nearly 200-year old, 9,000 square
foot home into a national geothermal highlight, a green technology with a 500% efficiency factor! Click here to read more. |
