Yesterday we explored the possibilities of building and mobility electrification in a focus group with youth from the Cham community center, in partnership with @SEACityLight ! (Photos used with permission)

[ECOSS @ECOSS]

⚡️What are the benefits of transportation and building electrification?

💨 Less air pollution
👂Quieter roads and highways
🦖 Less reliance on fossil fuels like gasoline and natural gas which are major air pollutants

[ECOSS @ECOSS]

⚡️Did you know that electrification and a zero emissions future is possible for our city because Seattle sources the majority (over 80%) of its electricity via hydropower?
