Fight for a fossil-free King County!

Lorelei --

Next month, King County Councilmember Dave Upthegrove will introduce an ordinance that we expect to effectively prohibit all new major fossil fuel infrastructure projects, such as gas pipeline expansion and new oil terminals.

Can you sign our petition calling on King County leaders to vote yes on the #FossilFreeKC ordinance and protect our healthy climate future?

The #FossilFreeKC ordinance builds on a strategy that's been successful in Portland, Vancouver, Tacoma and other PNW communities, where local governments have changed their land use zoning codes to prohibit dirty, dangerous fossil fuel infrastructure.  

King County is poised to pass the strongest anti-fossil fuel legislation in the country - and you can bet that fossil-fuel loving utilities like PSE will do everything in their power to stop it. We need your help to build a groundswell of community support more that resonates more loudly than fossil fuel money.

Three things you can do right now:

  1. Sign our petition calling on King County leaders to vote yes on the #FossilFreeKC ordinance and protect our healthy climate future
  2. Check out our new blog to learn more about the #FossilFreeKC ordinance and our strategy to win
  3. Join us for our next FossilFreeKC action meeting this Thursday, 12/13 from 6:30-7:30pm at our office: 1919 E Prospect St, Seattle WA 98122

Together, we can win a fossil-free future!

In solidarity,

Jess
