Moving Beyond Climate Pledges

350 Seattle is a grassroots-led community confronting the root causes of the climate crisis.

We're Building a

Cross Class Multi Generational Multi Racial Climate Movement

We imagine a Seattle where no matter what neighborhood you live in, what color your skin is, or how much money you make, you deserve a good future.

We want healthy lungs, accessible public transportation, thriving neighborhoods powered by renewable energy, where everyone can afford their bills and everyone gets to be well.

Why We Fight

The climate crisis is already here

The planet is boiling, basic needs are hardships with runaway inflation, people born in this city can’t stay here. Corporations and wealthy elites are burning up the planet for profit and our conservative politicians are dancing in the ashes

despite all of their pledges.

A voluntary transition from a fossil fuel economy is not inevitable.

In the summer of 2015, 350 Seattle activists joined thousands of citizens in campaigning, and ultimately canceling Shell Oil's plan to drill in the Arctic.

After months of pressure, in 2017 Seattle voted to divest $3 billion from Wells Fargo because of the banks funding of the Keystone XL Pipeline.

We have to fight. We deserve the good life. We deserve better choices than the ones now presented.

We're building the road to a healthy future by forging cross movement coalitions.

On September 28, 2022, the Healthy Through Heat and Smoke Campaign won funding to upgrade half of Seattle’s 26 community centers to be climate resilience hubs through the metropolitan parks levy.

After a year of campaigning, canvassing, lobbying and marching, in 2023 the Seattle City Council unanimously passed the Building Emissions Performance Standard.

When climate activists, labor unions, community organizers, frontline coalitions and everyday folks like you and me unite -

we win.

Hey community! We are looking for long-term stora

Hey community!
We are looking for long-term storage for our large art props. We need a cheap or free dry garage, basement, ware house, anything will work! For all or some.

We can help you organize a space, build shelving, haul things or whatever else you may need. You wouldn't have to do anything! Huge gratitude to those who have generously provided space for this imagery for the last decade.

We will need occasional access; about 10' x 20' x ceiling height, within Seattle.

These props are used by many groups within the extended seattle activist community. Many groups within the extended Seattle activist community use these props. By helping us find a long-term storage space, you can support the wider climate and justice movement.

We have a very short timeline to find a new space before we have to disperse everything across the city.

If you have any ideas or offerings, please be in touch by direct message or email info@350seattle.org.

🔊I-137 is now Propostion 1A !

Council Members Maritza Rivera, Cathy Moore, Bob Kettle, and Tanya Woo proposed an "alternative to I-137, which would fund social housing with a new tax on businesses that pay employees over $1 million.

Now the council wants to avoid imposing new taxes on big business, the interest group that paid for their seats on the council, by taking money from the JumpStart payroll expense tax 🤑- money that is supposed to go to affordable housing, the Green New Deal, the Equitable Development Initiative.

It's clear they are trying to pit affordable housing against social housing but they won't succeed.

At the same time, there are loads of dubious and flat out false claims being made about social housing. ➡️Swipe through for a fact-check on things Council has said about social housing.

Housing is a human right and a powerful 🍃Green New Deal solution. Together, let's make sure Prop 1A passes in February. ✊

Mark your calendars because Monday, October 14 is

Mark your calendars because Monday, October 14 is a day of celebration in Seattle! It's a day to recognize Indigenous Peoples’ Day by honoring and celebrating Native peoples.
Get ready for a day filled with festivities and appreciation for the abundant richness of Native communities, cultures, and history. There are many community-led events taking place throughout Seattle.

Everyone is invited to join the gatherings to lift up and honor the vibrancy of Native communities of these lands and beyond. We’ll celebrate the rich history, enduring legacy, and invaluable contributions of Native people, who have been an integral part of this region, and beyond, since time immemorial.

We extend our heartfelt appreciation to the Native activists and allies who, in 2014, passionately advocated for the City of Seattle to officially recognize the second Monday in October as Indigenous Peoples’ Day.

🔈 Election day is less than 7 weeks away! We need YOUR help to make sure the four dangerous initiatives don't pass this November.

These initiatives are designed to give wealthy corporations and individuals massive tax breaks, and a license to keep polluting while the rest of us foot the bill. And we simply cannot afford to backslide on climate progress.
