Buy a plate today, save a wetland tomorrow.
The Massachusetts Environmental Trust protects the lakes, rivers and coastal waters of Massachusetts.

Proceeds from the Trust’s specialty license plates (Right Whale & Roseate
Terns, Blackstone Valley Mill, and Brook Trout) have funded $16 million in projects to enhance and protect water quality done by hard-working, grass-roots environmental organizations across the state.

These are the only specialty plates that exclusively benefit the environment.

This new Land & Water license plate will allow the Trust to fund its new land conservation program in wetland & watershed communities across the Commonwealth.

Proceeds will be segregated in a separate fund dedicated to the acquisition, stewardship and restoration of land affecting 9,000 miles of streams and rivers, 1,100 lakes and ponds and over 1,500 miles of coastline - of which many thousands of acres are unprotected.

By purchasing this plate, you help protect core terrestrial and wetlands habitat and other priority watershed areas as identified on the State’s Natural Heritage Biomap, Living Waters, and Statewide Land Conservation Plan.

The Massachusetts Environmental Trust is launching a new “Land and Water Conservation” license plate that will support the conservation of land critical to the protection of the Commonwealth’s water resources.
Similar plates in other states have conserved tens of thousands of acres in recent years. This new tool for land conservation is needed here now more than ever.
This opportunity will be lost unless 3,000 people order a license plate NOW. Here’s how it works: the Registry does not encourage specialty plates, so the bar is set very high – 3,000 individuals must order a plate and actually send a check (can’t do it online or by credit card) before the Registry will even produce the plate. If we don’t get the 3,000 orders, checks will eventually be returned, the opportunity will be lost, and more land will be paved.
To reserve your new MET Land and Water plate make checks payable to Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles for $40.
