PubliCalendar: A Look at Some of Washington's Climate Change Proposals
Today's picks for civic nerds
For Today
Putting a Price on Washington's Climate Pollution
From Governor Inslee's carbon tax proposal to start-up tax reform groups like CarbonWA, Washington has become a national trailblazer in climate change reform. Join CarbonWA's founder Yoram Bauman (a stand-up comedian environmental economist!), 350.org's KC Golden, WA Policy Center's Todd Meyers, and Puget Sound SAGE's Nicole Vallestero Keenan to explore current proposals in environmental policy.
A cool fact about CarbonWA: Much of the group's organizing and work is done by students on UW's campus. You can check out the nifty Carbon Tax Swap calculator they developed for both businesses and households online.
Putting a Price on Washington's Climate Pollution, Mon, Mar 16, 6:15pm, Town Hall Seattle, 1119 Eighth Ave, $5
For Tuesday
The screening will be followed by a discussion with filmmaker Barak Goodman and local cancer specialists on the impact of the disease, the film's impact, and what we can do about it in Puget Sound. Learn more about the series online at KCTS, and make sure to register beforehand.
