Residents from all over the state begin virtual meetings to decide which climate change solutions to recommend to the Legislature in Olympia.
The Washington Climate Assembly is a first-of-its-kind experiment in the United States. Inspired by climate assemblies that have recently taken place in France and the United Kingdom, assembly members represent a sort of Washington state in miniature, and they’ll spend the next two months working to reach a consensus on how to mitigate climate pollution in Washington. In March, they’ll send their recommendations to the state Legislature.
