About Us:

Currently, the global sea level average is 3.8 inches higher than it was 1993, the highest average sea level on record. It's essential that we stop and reverse the practices that have led us down the path of global warming to protect our future. Addressing global warming among other issues is both possible and necessary at the community level. At REACH, we're dedicated to environmental protection. Our aim is to educate others in our town about environmental topics including, climate change, recycling, and more! We hope to address global environmental issues at the local level and create meaningful change for our town in the process.
