Shift Zero is an alliance of over 60 green building, energy efficiency, affordable housing and climate action organizations working together to catalyze a just transition to zero carbon buildings for all in Washington State. Carbon emissions from buildings represent more than a quarter of the state’s total climate pollution, and continue to rapidly grow. Shift Zero plays a unique role as a convener and hub for thought leadership, facilitating coordinated action to advance policy and program solutions that maximize energy efficiency, transition buildings away from fossil fuels, and increase access to healthy buildings and communities in our state.
Shift Zero was started as an alliance in 2017 as a way to better coordinate advocacy and communication amongst organizations working on green building policies in Washington State, and to collectively advance a zero carbon vision for all in Washington.
Shift Zero is fiscally sponsored by the NW Energy Coalition, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and is funded by our members; the following foundation partners: Sierra Club Foundation Movement Forward Fund, The Russell Family Foundation, Sustainable Path Foundation; and underwriting partners EcoSpark Heating and Cooling and McKinstry. We deeply appreciate the financial support that makes the work of the alliance possible.
