History
Founded in 1967 to address air pollution problems from New England power plants, NESCAUM has since grown considerably in scope and mission. New York joined NESCAUM in 1970 and New Jersey in 1979. Today, NESCAUM addresses a wide spectrum of air quality, climate, and energy issues: mercury contamination, diesel exhaust, climate change adaptation and mitigation, energy efficiency, cleaner cars and fuels, environmental justice, and new and more effective regulatory policies, to name just a few.
