Hey Alexa!
Late last year, we decided to research Amazon’s climate impact…and it wasn’t pretty: Amazon’s shipping in 2017 alone released at least 19.1 million metric tons of CO2 into the atmosphere.

After winning our Electrify Seattle campaign in Dec ’23, our team is in research & planning mode. Stay tuned for our next Green New Deal campaign!
Since we co-launched Seattle’s Green New Deal with Got Green in 2019, we’ve worked in broad community coalition to win campaigns like:
Our campaigns are powered by member-organizers who do campaign research, community outreach, direct actions, education, public comment, lobbying elected officials, communications and relationship-building with community partners.
Our Green New Deal campaigns build people power to win local investments that reduce pollution, build healthy communities and create green union jobs for all.
Keep an eye out for a campaign launch in the coming months. And in the meantime, we hope you’ll plug in with one of our many other awesome teams!

Done right, congestion pricing puts the burden of cost on higher-income single-occupancy-vehicle (SOV) drivers, and devotes that revenue to improved transit for all; this means that we get a fairer city, a less polluted city, and a city with more room for rapid transit, pedestrians, and bicyclist
Congratulations! We look forward to working with you to make Seattle a world-class city that’s leading boldly on climate, transportation, and livability.
The reality is that Seattle is failing to meet its targets–even though there is now consensus that those targets were inadequately bold.
Honoring climate stories and the value of creativity outside of its commodification.
