The New England Aquarium has undertaken several greening efforts as part of their strategic plan, focusing on energy conservation, sustainable seafood, and recycling. They have implemented various energy saving projects like lighting and water pump replacements that have significantly reduced electricity usage and carbon emissions. The aquarium also promotes sustainable seafood, operates a green restaurant, and has an ongoing commitment to recycling programs and recommendations from the Green Restaurant Association. Moving forward, they are considering on-site clean electricity production but face technical and cost barriers, and will continue fundraising, communication, and collaborative efforts with other organizations.
