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.
