Our Strategic Climate Action Plan is perhaps the best in the US; our goal is to reduce greenhouse gas impacts by 80% by 2025.

King County leads the nation in solutions, but there's still more to be done. I pledge to work towards a goal of zero youth incarceration.

We're prepared for days-long Peacemaking Circles. We're ready to do the work. But it will take work.
