Climate Solutions

Climate Solutions seeks to impact global warming by affecting regional attitudes and policy, with input on proposed energy plans, building standards, and other efforts such as Power Past Coal, which seeks to prevent the transport of coal by train through the Northwest for eventual export to Asia. Naturally, as was mentioned by several others, they sometimes face steep opposition, from a bipartisan political climate. They often work with utility companies as well to influence their policies and operations, like stopping the use of coal to generate power for the Northwest. On their website, they spotlight "Solutions Stories", tales of successes achieved through efforts of others impacting climate change that might not otherwise get publicity.
