Join campaign for ‘just transition’ to clean-energy economy
Alliance events set for Thursday in Everett, Olympia; on July 27 in Seattle
“Taking the Lead on Climate Change” kickoff events are being scheduled throughout the state to discuss what the Alliance believes is the most effective and equitable carbon reduction policy to date for transitioning to a clean-energy economy in Washington. Last month, events were held in Bellingham and Spokane, and all are invited to attend the following kickoff events scheduled for this month:
Thursday, July 13 in EVERETT — Join the Alliance from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Everett United Church of Christ, 2624 Rockefeller Ave. RSVP and share the Facebook event.
Thursday, July 13 in OLYMPIA — Join the Alliance from 7 to 8 p.m. at Traditions Fair Trade: 300 5th Ave. SW. RSVP on Facebook here!
Thursday, July 27 in SEATTLE — Join the Alliance from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at the Centilia Cultural Center, 1660 S. Roberto Maestas Festival St. RSVP on Facebook.
With the federal government pulling out of the Paris Accord, budgets slashed at the Environmental Protection Agency, and funding for social safety nets in jeopardy, there couldn’t be a more urgent time for equitable climate action that protects all of us, especially the communities most impacted by climate change.
But to change everything, it’ll take everyone.
