When it comes to Shell's Arctic drilling plans, Seattleites won't give up easily. Building a clean energy economy is going to require hard work, but we’re not daunted. We know that an important first step is drawing the line at continued fossil fuel extraction.

The Northwest is absolutely humming with climate activism of every sort. Our annual breakfast speakers challenged us to keep up the fight against fossil-fuel dominance, injustice and political inertia, and move from opposition to opportunity.

Sometimes good things lurk in the FOG. In this case, FOG is a waste product—fats, oils, and grease—and it’s a major reason why the City of Gresham was able to turn its wastewater treatment plant from an energy hog into the first net zero energy plant in the Pacific Northwest.
