THE TIME

IS NOW

We cannot wait. We will not wait. 

​

Climate change is here today and growing exponentially.

​

Rising global temperatures have impacted our region and will continue to do so.

It's worse for our marginalized communities.

Our ability to mitigate or adapt to the changes will determine the effects on our region.

We need to move with speed and to scale for impact.

​

We are a coalition of Northwest stakeholders determined to protect and defend our region's natural beauty and assets, our livelihoods, and economic vitality for future generations and the most vulnerable among us.

​

We know the strength is in our collective energy and there is power in our numbers.

We are The Wave.
