We often hear about benefits from our clean energy and climate laws, but can we see the benefits in our communities?
On Friday, 9/13 at noon join us to explore a treasure map of climate commitments coming your way. For this training we will start by showing you the mapping tool that identifies how funds from the Climate Commitment Act’s cap-and-invest system are supporting kids in public primary school, among many other benefits to Washington.
Will you come “back to school” with us for a Zoom webinar briefing at noon Friday, September 13?

Experts from the Clean and Prosperous Institute will show us how to use their new “Risk of Repeal” mapping tool to see how cap-and-invest funds are working for Washington communities across the state.
This webinar is for anyone wanting to learn more about our state’s climate commitments and funding to accelerate the transition to clean energy for all by making polluters pay. These are the very investments that are under threat from Initiative 2117.

Co-hosted by Climate Solutions and other partners, this webinar will provide information you can use about climate and clean energy benefits coming to communities and various sectors across Washington. It helps us tell the story of our state’s transition to a healthy clean energy future.
During the webinar training we’ll first take a look at investments in schools and students, including funding safer access to schools, improved classroom experiences, and transportation.
According to CPI’s ongoing tracking of Climate Commitment Act investments, nearly $3 billion have been invested in specific projects throughout the state; more funds are being allocated each month. From Anacortes to Yakima, projects are already underway or launching soon in school districts and campuses across the state. These include:
- Zero-emission school buses
- Safe routes to schools
- Transit support grants (free fares for youth riders at 30 transit agencies)
- Energy retrofits and solar power for public buildings
- School district indoor air quality and energy efficiency
- Small district and tribal compact schools modernization
Join us Friday at noon to learn more. We’ll save time for a robust Q&A session and a chance to take real-time suggestions of other elements to explore with the Risk of Repeal map and one-pager fact sheets. So get your questions ready too!
Can you join us Friday 9/13 at noon to learn more about the risks of repealing the Climate Commitment Act?
