The following is from the one and only People's Climate Assembly in the US - and it is in our own state of Washington - check it out. They've made huge and will continue to make progress!
Greetings Fellow Climate And Civic Engagement Activists.
As you know, the recently completed Washington Climate Assembly put forth more than 100 recommendations for mitigation policy and legislative action. These recommendations were supported by at least 80% of the bipartisan and demographically representative gathering of Washington residents. The recommendations consist of proposals for:
Renewable Energy Transitions
Buildings
Circular Economy and Zero Waste
Carbon Mitigation
Forest and Soil Health
Reducing Travel Carbon Footprint
Centering Communities
Education and Behavior Change
Health
Several of the specific recommendations closely parallel proposals put forward by members of this community.
Over 60 legislators signed up to attend a presentation of the recommendations, and many have expressed interest in further engagement. Over the next few months, People’s Voice on Climate will be meeting with them to leverage this declaration of community support toward future policy and legislation. We would like to hear from you which specific proposals you find most important and most enactable. We would also be thrilled to work with you around recommendations which align with your specific priorities.
Thank you for your interest and support. We look forward to hearing from you.
