We cannot afford to wait.
More than 627,000 acres burned,
nearly 200 homes destroyed,
8 days of smoke-filled skies,
and counting.
Climate fires are relentlessly burning across our state, blocking out September skies with toxic smoke that is filling lungs from the peninsula to the palouse. At Carbon WA, we are simply not willing to call this our new normal. So we're doing everything we can to make sure that our future is filled with blue skies, good jobs, and healthy, resilient communities.
We CANNOT afford to wait.
That's why we're working on a bold new plan that empowers Washington communities to act quickly. A plan that recognizes we cannot recover and rebuild our economy without recognizing the threat of climate disasters like this one and addressing them head on. And you can help.
We CAN rebuild quickly and safeguard WA communities.
A recovery bond backed by a price on carbon pollution provides the fiscally responsible investment option we need to put people back to work quickly, jumpstart local economies, and lead the nation on a resilient recovery that ensures long-term prosperity and security for all.
But we need your help.
We know times are tough, and there are a lot of urgent needs right now. But every dollar makes a difference. And, thanks to a generous supporter of this critical work - yours could be doubled! We have a $30,000 MATCH in place for the rest of September.
So, as we remain inside and wait for our skies to clear, you can still have an impact.
