Hello Port of Seattle Team, and good morning.

I find it encouraging that one of the Century goals is to “Be the greenest, and most energy

efficient port in North America”.

Unfortunately, I think the comparison aspect of that goal makes it useless. Ports are among the

highest producers of carbon emissions and other pollution of any institutions, and Seattle

should be setting clear, measurable, science-based targets, not loose comparisons.

As port commissioners, I imagine you have read and understand the gravity of the climate

crisis. There are no magic pills, silver bullets, or aliens coming to save us from collapse if we

do not save ourselves. Take courage and use the power you have been given by the people to

revise the Century Agenda and make an actual difference before its too late.

Will you look back and wish you had worked harder to make more money for the ruling

class? Or will you take pride in the fact that you protected humanity from their suicidal greed

and corruption?
