Emerald Cities – Seattle: Expand Green Up Funds for All

Sustainable Path’s grant will support their project to craft a carbon reduction fund that can be used to invest in renewable energy and to incentivize projects to convert from using fossil fuels to clean electricity.
 Emerald Cities will review the efforts made to date within Seattle City Light,as well as a City of Seattle effort to create a Carbon Reduction Incentive Fund (CRIF), to fund renewable energy and renewable energy credits. Scanning the national landscape of carbon reduction efforts, Emerald Cities will assemble a set of best practices that could be considered as local solutions. Assembling a group of stakeholders, Emerald Cities will use lessons learned, best practices from around the country, and our current legal, regulatory, and political realities to craft a carbon reduction fund that can be used to invest in renewable energy and to incentivize projects to convert from using fossil fuels to clean electricity. This program will include methods to raise money, and use it effectively to reduce green house gas (GHG) emissions through projects in Seattle. It will be scalable to other jurisdictions and demonstrate that it can work statewide as well. It can provide a framework for the use and distribution of potential future revenue from a cap-and-trade system or carbon tax. Emerald Cities will look for community involvement in the promotion and management of the fund as a model for environmental democracy.

Re-Sources For A Sustainable Community

Sustainable Path’s grant will fund the groundwork for RE Sources to design, implement, and host microplastic sampling and data collection training workshops for a new corps of citizen scientists.

The smallest things can sometimes create the biggest problems. Microplastics in Puget Sound is one such notable example. These tiny pieces of plastic—less than 5 mm in diameter—are wreaking havoc on our nearshore habitats, marine invertebrates, and many species of fish, mammals and birds. While scientists have researched and documented the impacts of microplastics on the world’s oceans, little is understood or known about what these tiny particles are doing to filter feeders, salmon and many other species in Puget Sound. At the macro level we know that everything from phytoplankton biomass to loss of habitat function is at risk but the extent of the damage and the long-term consequences remain largely unknown.

Sustainable Path’s grant will fund the groundwork for RE Sources to design, implement, and host microplastic sampling and data collection training workshops for a new corps of citizen scientists. Re-Sources is a partner of the Institute of Environmental Toxicology at Western Washington University (WWU) in conducting a risk assessment of microplastics in Puget Sound. Collecting and analyzing data at several sites will help both inform new policies to mitigate microplastic damage and identify hotspots.

Sightline Institute: The Thin Green Line – Land use law reform to prohibit new fossil fuel infrastructure 

Sustainable Path’s grant will support Sightline’s work for land use reform.

Sightline’s work on preventing fossil fuels has been ongoing since 2011. Sightline was one of the first to ring the alarm on the hazards of coal transportation, as well as Big Oil’s plans to drastically increase oil-by-rail shipments to the coast. This work will continue until the global threat from fossil fuels has been contained, and every last export proposal has been shut down. In the near-term, Sightline anticipates local land use law will become the most effective tool for this job. Big energy companies need permission from local governments all up and down the Puget Sound—cities that have the potential to be the last line of defense that keeps these dirty and dangerous fossil fuels in the ground. The current legislative session is our next chance to hold the thin green line strong.

Sustainable Path’s grant will support Sightline’s work for land use reform. For this work, Sightline will act as the research and communications arm of this movement. Working in close collaboration with local partners, Sightline will support the introduction of new legislation that will amend Tacoma’s local land use law to forestall new dirty energy development. A powerful coalition is emerging in Tacoma– one that includes fence-line communities and residents, the nearby Puyallup Tribe, affected workers like the Longshoremen, and local environmental organizations – to protect Tacoma and the waters of Commencement Bay from the depredations of the fossil fuel industry.  If successful in Tacoma, Sightline will help to replicate the ban in other Puget Sound cities in coming months and years.

Wild Fish Conservancy: San Juan Sustainable Fishery Model

Sustainable Path’s grant will support WFC’s work assisting local fishermen in their transition from gillnets to reef nets.

While it’s true Pacific salmon are critically important to the economy of the Northwest, to talk only of their economic importance ignores a greater truth. Salmon are the backbone of what we in the Northwest hold dear: our culture, our environment, and our communities.

Today, in waters once supporting abundant populations, four native salmonid species in the sound are listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act: Chinook salmon, summer chum salmon, steelhead trout, and bull trout. Their decline cannot be attributed to any one cause, but rather an accumulation of detrimental human activities including habitat degradation, hatchery impacts, dams, and overharvest from non-selective commercial fishing practices. Sustainable Path’s grant will support Wild Fish Conservancy (WCF) works to mitigate the negative effects of the latter by expanding the use of sustainable, selective commercial fishing practices in Puget Sound.  

Since 2015, WFC has worked in partnership with Lummi Island Wild, a collaboratively owned reef net fishery based on Lummi Island, to advocate for the adoption of reef nets as stock-selective gears. This collaboration has resulted in the expansion and promotion of a sustainable model for regional commercial fisheries. Using fishing methods pioneered centuries ago by the Lummi and Saanich Nations, the non-native members of Lummi Island Wild are re-purposing a traditional salmon harvesting method known as reef netting. Reef nets are capable of releasing ESA-listed salmon back into the wild with the lowest mortality and bycatch rates of any fishing gear. WFC has helped the Lummi Island fishers expand and succeed in harmony with the surrounding ecosystem and tribal communities.

Sustainable Path’s grant will support WFC’s work assisting local fishermen in their transition from gillnets to reef nets. WFC is working with engineers to refine the efficiency of reef nets as stock-selective harvest tools, securing sustainable market certification, and improve the viability of their co-op model.

 

Impact Circle-7  Fall 2016

Focus: Pushing the envelope for a sustainable community 

Center for Sustainable Infrastructure (CSI)

Piloting the CSI Innovative Lab Services – a mission-serving and revenue-generating program to provide infrastructure managers with the services, tools, and methods to shape a decidedly more desirable future. The plan calls for at least two pilot projects to begin to establish the Innovation Lab’s track record and base of experience. CSI anticipates two pilot projects in their home city, Olympia.  CSI believes Olympia can be a pioneering leader in Puget Sound of sustainable infrastructure innovation, and that these two pilot projects can represent powerful first steps in that direction.

PCC Farmland Trust

PCC Farmland Trust will support its farmers by establishing a new program, Advancing Farm Sustainability (AFS). AFS will enable farmers to adopt new approaches to sustainable land management—better protecting and stewarding the natural resources on their farms—that would otherwise be cost prohibitive. Each farmer-partner must develop a Farm Plan with the local Conservation District or Natural Resource Conservation Service. Often, these conservation organizations have some funds available to help farmers implement the best practices detailed in the plan. While these are valuable resources, the process to obtain funds is cumbersome, uncertain, and slow—barriers often discouraging farmers from adopting new sustainable practices. Through its new program, the Trust is able to help farmers navigate the various funding opportunities available to them. The AFS program also offers critical, flexible, financial assistance—dollars that can be leveraged as match in order to secure additional local or federal funds, or simply provide direct, rapid assistance when it is needed most.

Puget Soundkeeper Alliance

Water Quality Monitoring and Creek Advocacy Pilot Project is designed to address critical water pollution challenges by engaging existing citizen watershed groups with monitoring water quality and compliance with the Clean Water Act in their local watershed. Soundkeeper staff will identify and collaborate with community creek and other small watershed organizations, recruit and train volunteers to patrol and monitor their watershed, provide a Pollution Hotline for concerned citizens and whistleblowers , conduct targeted education and water quality sampling and ultimately amplify the voices to increase protection for Puget Sound.

Sustainable Connections

District Scale Utility Development for Bellingham’s Waterfront: As the City of Bellingham works to redevelop its former industrial waterfront, there is a rare opportunity to help guide decision makers in the development of a true ecodistrict built to enhance the community while based firmly on principles of sustainability. A key aspect of this eco-district will be the development of a District Energy system to provide energy to businesses, residences, and industrial installations in a manner that minimizes emissions while providing outstanding savings to district residents. Once installed studies indicate that by efficiently using steam and cold water to provide heat and cooling a district energy solution can reduce emissions in the waterfront district by emissions by 11,000 Metric Tons of C02 equivalent per year. Sustainable Connections will actively promote the idea of district energy to City Council, Port Representatives and Developer representatives as well as planning and industry professionals. They will bring in outside experts to present on the benefits of district energy and to address the final concerns of the involved parties. Additionally, Sustainable Connections will produce educational materials that can be used both educate the public on what a district energy system would provide and to publicize the system to local architects, developers, and realtors so that they can optimally utilize the benefits of such a system in attracting and designing for future residents.

Impact Circle- 6 May, 2016

DNDA led a group of six organizations to acquire, restore and protect the wetlands at 23rd SW and SW Findlay street. They will create a community permaculture demonstration garden and a children’s garden.

Jefferson Land Trust: Chimacum Commons Project

JLT recently acquired 16 acres of historic farmland adjacent to Chimacum Creek. Their long-term vision for this site is to preserve it as farmland for aspiring farmers and build small, ecological dwelling units for farm interns and workers.

Seattle Tilth: Engaging Rainier Beach Residents in Environmental Stewardship Project

Seattle Tilth will hold work parties to construct a rain garden to demonstrate how to deal with stormwater runoff in a sustainable way, as well as a learning garden that will serve as an outdoor classroom.

Impact Circle -5  December, 2015

Futurewise: Climate Justice and Resilient Voices Project

The Climate Justice and Resilient Voices Project will bring the voice of youth into Seattle’s Comprehensive Planning process so that climate equity will be strengthened as the City plans for the next 20 years. Seattle city will adopt their Comprehensive Plan and Capital Improvement Plan by December 2016.  Futurewise will work with partners El Centro de la Raza and Arts Corps to train youth in storytelling and spoken word, as well as education on climate change impacts and data about the communities that will be most impacted. The youths’ works will be showcased at a community reception, and also shown in other locations, as well as an online gallery presentation and an interactive website.

Nature Consortium: Urban Reforestation Project

Nature Consortium has been successfully restoring the West Duwamish Greenbelt since 2003, with the long term goal of helping the area transition towards a more balanced, mixed-­‐age deciduous and coniferous forest, leading to increase in the tree canopy, carbon sequestration, and a sustainable environment. On a weekly basis, they often have as many as 150 individual volunteers clearing 15,000 square feet of invasive plants. Sustainable Path’s grant will increase their capacity to engage and train more volunteers, thereby increasing the scale of their restoration activities.

NW Sustainable Energy for Economic Development (NW SEED): Solarize Woodinville Project

Through Solarize Woodinville, Northwest SEED will partner with community volunteers, local government leaders, solar installers, and Puget Sound Energy to boost awareness and offer a limited time group purchase opportunity for homeowners and small businesses to install solar panels with an emergency power option. Sustainable Path’s grant will be used to expand the Solarize offering by incorporating the next generation of solar technology so that NW SEED can continue to grow locally connected communities powered by rooftop solar .
NW Natural Resource Group (NNRG): Accelerating Resilience for Small Forests

NNRG provides educational workshops, forestry assistance, financial incentives, marketing and Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification for small forest owners. This project will educate forest owners about how to use forest stewardship planning, forest certification, and ecologically-based thinning projects to mitigate and adapt to climate change. Sustainable Path’s grant will support landowner outreach, site visits and training events.

NW Natural Resource Group (NNRG): Accelerating Resilience for Small Forests

NNRG provides educational workshops, forestry assistance,  financial incentives, marketing and Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification for small forest owners. This project will educate forest owners about how to use forest stewardship planning, forest certification and ecologically-based thinning projects to mitigate and adapt to climate change. Sustainable Path’s grant will support landowner outreach, site visits and training events.

Impact Circle- 4 June, 2015

FOCUS: Building Puget Sound’s Resilience in the Face of Climate Change

Puget Soundkeeper Alliance (Soundkeeper): Water Quality Monitoring Project

The mission of the Soundkeeper is to protect and preserve Puget Sound by monitoring, cleaning up and preventing pollutants from entering its waters. Soundkeeper actively monitors Puget Sound’s water quality by boat, enforces the Clean Water Act, engages with stakeholders and regulators and implements solution-oriented partnerships with Puget Sound residents and the business community. The Clean Water Act allows citizens to step in when regulatory agencies like the state department of Ecology are unable to fulfill their legal obligations to protect the Sound. Soundkeeper is only one of two organizations that has field monitoring capability. The other organization is ReSources’ North South Baykeeper program.

This grant supports Soundkeeper’s presence on the ground from six hours/week to 46 hours/week. It will enable Soundkeeper to expand its patrol range and hlep the Legal Committee and Staff Attorney prepare and prioritize enforcement.

ReSources: Tenmile Creek Watershed and Fecal Coliform Project

ReSources Clean Water team has been conducting work in the Tenmile Creek watershed of Whatcom County’s Water Resources Inventory Area 1. The project’s aim is to reduce the amount of fecal coliform loading in the watershed, which drains to Portage Bay – a traditional shellfishing area for the Lummi Nation that is periodically closed due to high fecal coliform levels. The heart of this project focuses on engaging watershed residents in reducing contamination by engaging them in collecting water samples, reviewing data from those samples, and then working together to eliminate the causes of high fecal coliform.

This grant supports this work and will enable ReSources to expand this model to adjacent watersheds.

Impact Circle 3 Grants – May, 2015

Climate Solutions: New Energy Cities

In 2015, we will build on our work with the King County-Cities Climate Collaboration (K4C), a voluntary coalition of 12 cities including and surrounding Seattle that are determined to reduce regional green house gas (GHG) emissions. The goal of this new focus is to provide our New Energy Cities technical assistance to a city in South King County that lacks the resources of the county’s cities with more affluent tax bases. The desired outcome is that a city with fewer resources and a significant population of low-income residents, such as Burien, Federal Way, Renton, or Tukwila, would have access to the same tools as other cities in the county and thereby create a plan for how to reduce its community’s GHG emissions.

Emerald Cities-Seattle: RENEW project – Retrofits for Energy Efficiency Works

The RENEW program will educate affordable housing building owners (non-profit organizations) about efficiency opportunities, setting the stage for engagement in efficiency projects.  Program partner, O’Brien & Company will act as Green Building Advisor supporting assessments, project development, and monitoring and verification. As the program financing coach, Emerald Cities Seattle will bring new finance options to building owners and assist with selection and attainment of financing for projects. The program will address the entire portfolio of each building owner and bundle projects in lots of 4-6 in order to gain efficiencies.

This grant will start the full pilot phase of five buildings followed by a scale-up of ten buildings.  The overall plan is to complete 15 projects using the Development Fund to share the cost of initial development work with the building owner.  As the program grows over the next 24 months, the RENEW fund will eventually support 20 projects per year.

International Living Future Institute (ILFI): Increase Net Zero Energy Buildings in Puget Sound Project

ILFI will reach out to the Puget Sound region, educate the community about zero energy solutions, identify buildings that claim or are planning to achieve net zero energy and provide the technical assistance and resources to guide them through the Net Zero Energy certification process. ILFI hopes to certify 10 new buildings by the end of this grant period.

To earn Net Zero Energy certification, a project must meet the requirements of five Living Building Challenge imperatives, including:

  • Limits to Growth (curbing the building’s contribution to the effects of sprawled development, which undermines the positive impact of achieving net zero energy building operation
  • Net Zero Energy
  • Beauty + Spirit and Inspiration + Education, underscoring the notion that renewable energy systems can be incorporated into a building in ways that are attractive and inspiring

The grant will support these actions of ILFI:

  • Provide technical assistance to project teams of buildings that fall short of expectations, assisting them to successfully complete certification requirements
  • Work with project teams on new buildings to ensure that net zero energy requirements are successfully implemented
  • Deliver ongoing, targeted net zero energy education programs to building owners, design professionals and community leaders
  • Document case studies online and in publications

Nisqually Land Trust: Carbon Sequestration on Private Forest Land Project

The Nisqually Land Trust is developing a forest carbon offset project under the California Air Resources Board Offset Protocol for U.S. Forests as a means to pay for acquisition, restoration, and long-term stewardship of land that was owned by an industrial timber manager. The Nisqually Land Trust has partnered with the Washington Environmental Council to promote forest conservation and forest carbon offset projects to high-profile companies in the Puget Sound region.

The grant award will help fund the completion of the carbon offset project through verification and registration of credits and the production of a lessons learned document. The development phase of the project (forest inventory, modeling carbon stocks under baseline, project management, project documentation, third-party verification, registry and regulatory review) will last through the third quarter of 2015.  Marketing credits to local companies will be ongoing but for the first large transaction should be completed by the end of 2015. The development of the “lessons learned” document will be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2016.

You can read more about the process of modeling carbon stock process on the NLT website.
