We tuned into @OPBTOL this week and were excited to hear @GovTinaKotek say she's "110% committed" to fighting climate change. She has an opportunity to be a real leader if she puts that commitment into action. opb.org/article/2023/10/17/o…
SEA is excited to join the ZERO Coalition to advance our goal of building a community taking collective action toward net zero carbon emissions. We look forward to being a part of the conversations, advocating for important policies, & integrating lessons into our projects.

If you burn it, you breathe it. Gas stoves emit a dangerous pollutant that puts our health at risk. @jeffbradynews reports on new research, which reveals the fossil fuel industry KNEW about it's "NOx problem" as early as 1970. And worked to cover it up.
