2014--the year which saw the largest climate action march ever, plus victories over big coal and advances in clean energy--is coming to a close with a bang.

Gov. Inslee’s carbon pollution fee wins praise, import tariffs split the PV industry, some car-makers bet on hydrogen fuel cells over battery EVs, and more stories of the week in clean energy solutions.

Washington environmental and clean energy economy leaders respond to Governor Jay Inslee's climate action announcement, and praise the vision of a healthier and more just future for our state.

For several years, the Northwest has opposed big coal's slew of coal export proposals. Thanks to you, we stopped four out of six. Now, we have the opportunity to fight for solutions, and must bring that same passion to accelerate a clean and equitable energy economy.

Cheap petroleum leads firms to stop oil drilling, South Carolina gets net-metering for solar, carbon taxes get backing from studies in Oregon and Canada, and more stories of the week in clean energy solutions.

Our comments on the EPA's Clean Power Plan. The Northwest is on a path towards a clean energy economy; abandoning coal and increasing renewables and energy efficiency. The county should follow, and should set bolder targets for reining in carbon pollution.

No matter how clean your electricity supply is on average, we’re all connected by a power grid that uses every available green electron. At the margin, we're all equal consumers of fossil fuel. 

Ending polluters' free ride is the key recommendation of Governor Inslee's task force on carbon emissions.

Business as usual ends, badly and soon. That's the gist of a new report from the IPCC. But the report also delivers important conclusions about how we can save ourselves through a transition to clean energy.
