Who we are
We're the Washington State affiliate of Citizens Climate Lobby, a non-profit, non-partisan grassroots advocacy organization dedicated to building the political will to address climate change.
Our consistently respectful, nonpartisan approach to climate education is designed to create a broad, sustainable foundation to drive climate action across all geographic regions and political inclinations. By building upon shared values rather than partisan divides, and empowering our supporters to work in keeping with the concerns of their local communities, we work towards the adoption of fair, effective, and sustainable climate change solutions.
We train and support volunteers across Washington State organized in fifteen chapters to build relationships with elected officials, the media and their local community.
