About Us
How does a regional non-profit organization make an impact on the world’s biggest environmental problem? That’s the challenge Climate Solutions has taken on.
In the face of an issue mired in partisan politics, scientific confusion, and a scope too large to easily grasp, the team at Climate Solutions decided from the beginning to focus on accelerating practical and profitable solutions to global warming.
Climate Solutions was formed when two smaller organizations, the Atmosphere Alliance and the Energy Outreach Center, joined forces. Started in 1998 in Olympia, Washington, our founders faced a political landscape that made bold national action to confront global warming virtually unimaginable.
Since then, Climate Solutions has grown from a small store front in Olympia with six staff to 20 people located in three Northwest states
Working at the regional level, we've built long-term relationships, often across the partisan divide. Through years of patient organizing and bridge-building, Climate Solutions has developed vibrant partnerships with an extraordinarily wide array of business, farm, government and civic interests.
