Mayor Bruce Harrell signs the Seattle Building Emissions Performance Standard (BEPS) into law – a bold policy to address the climate crisis and create cleaner buildings. The policy would reduce greenhouse gas emissions from existing large buildings by approximately 325,000 metric tons by 2050 – a 27% decrease in building related emissions from a 2008 baseline or the equivalent of taking 72,322 gasoline-powered cars off the road for a year.

Speakers include:

Director Jessyn Farrell, Office of Sustainability and Environment

Mayor Bruce Harrell, City of Seattle

Councilmember Lisa Herbold, Seattle City Council

Patience Malaba, Housing Development Consortium

Katie Garrow, MLK Labor

Deepa Sivarajan, Climate Solutions
