Despite a bleak outlook for climate action nationally, the people of the Pacific Northwest showed up in a big way this November, demonstrating that when communities get organized and work together for a healthier future, we can accomplish remarkable victories.

Washington’s students and schools will receive considerable benefits from the Climate Commitment Act, but Initiative 2117 threatens these critical investments.

Urban heat islands are caused by too many buildings and not enough green space. Accordingly, a natural solution is to add greenery back into cities.

Extreme heat events like this are a dramatic example of the dangers of burning fossil fuels. We need clean energy solutions that protect our climate AND our communities.

Did you know that 24 of Oregon's most advanced, energy-efficient homes are located in Grand Ronde? But how do we get these benefits into the hands of more renters across the region?

Nearly at the midpoint of Washington's 2024 legislative session, legislators are taking action on some of the state's top climate priorities. Here's where more pressure is needed as the session continues.
