April 8, 2020

In celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day, the City of Shoreline recently released its first Sustainability Report. The City has a long-standing commitment to environmental sustainability and took several steps in 2019 to reduce our environmental footprint and provide beneficial programs and resources for the community. Programs related to waste reduction, green building, pollution prevention, and natural habitat have helped establish Shoreline as a regional leader in sustainability and climate action.

The report provides an overview of the City’s 2019 achievements for five core focus areas, and associated indicators, as outlined in our Sustainable Shoreline program. The focus areas include:

• Climate, Water & Energy;
• Materials, Food & Waste;
• Transportation & Mobility;
• Trees, Parks & Ecosystems; and
• Resilient Communities.
