Official Daily Action for Wednesday, August 23, 2023:
Today’s action is a signal boost for our friends over at Climate Solutions.
The City of Seattle is currently developing a policy to transition large commercial and multi-family buildings off of fossil fuels to fight the climate crisis and protect public health and safety. The policy, which is called a building emissions performance standard or BEPS, will set timelines for different types of buildings to transition off of polluting fossil fuels over the coming years.
Simultaneously, City leaders are working with Unite Here Local 8 and other labor organizations to develop the Living Hotels policy, which would set strong environmental and social justice standards for new hotel construction in Seattle.
ACTION: Make your voice heard!
