Washington climate advocates, it's time to suit up!
We are spreading the word across the state to make sure people vote NO on I-2117 to protect our air and water, forests and farmland, jobs, and transportation investments. And NO on I-2066 to protect energy efficiency programs and keep energy costs from rising.
The way grids are operated—including building out transmission infrastructure in the necessary geographies where energy is needed, controlling flows, and handling electricity sales—is a critical piece of our clean energy transition.
Amidst another extreme and record-breaking heat wave, affordable and energy-efficient cooling is essential for everyone. Electric heat pumps can make that happen.
Heat pumps are an essential piece of the puzzle for meeting our climate and affordable housing goals. They both reduce climate emissions and provide long-term energy affordability for users.
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.
The state of Oregon was recently awarded $86 million for rooftop solar projects for lower-income residents. The extra cool news: combined with existing federal and state solar incentive programs, this may bring the upfront costs of rooftop solar to nearly zero for many eligible households.
This report from Synapse and Climate Solutions provides an analysis of options for Washington's methane gas utilities and their transition to clean energy.
Kids deserve to breathe clean, unpolluted air. Plenty of ink has already been spilled about the harms of polluted air in homes and classrooms. However, students are still routinely exposed to dirty, polluted air from a source in virtually every school district’s driveway: the school bus.
We saw success despite a challenging legislative environment that included a minority of Senators leading the longest walkout in Oregon’s history. Because the legislative calendar was down to the wire, many climate and clean energy bills were combined into two omnibus bills...
Oregon could benefit from new source of clean energy to reduce climate pollution and reduce fossil fuel dependency
