350 Tacoma acknowledges that most of our work takes place on the lands of the Puyallup and Coast Salish Peoples. We raise our hands for the love, connection, and stewardship of these lands and waters since time immemorial, and continuing today. We strive to be good guests and good caregivers to the natural world around us, and do the work with intention and humility.
350 Tacoma is building a future that’s just, prosperous, equitable, healthy and safe from the effects of climate change. We are building a diverse multi-issue movement to create the people power needed to rapidly transform our economy and society. Much of our work is done in collaboration because we are stronger together.

Speak at the virtual Public Hearing this Thurs 11/12 from 4pm - 6pm!(Zoom link & more info via QR code or link in 350 Tacoma bio)Send written comments by 4:30pm this Fri 11/13 to PublicComment@pscleanair.gov Tell the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency: Deny the requested permit modifications as currently proposed. PSE provides no data or analysis to back up its claims that these changes will have no effect on greenhouse gases, toxic air emissions, or public safety. This for-profit corporation has a history of emissions violations, inaccurate permit data, and attempting to avoid proper scrutiny during permit processes. Furthermore, this agency’s lack of notification and consultation with the Puyallup Tribe regarding this permit modification proposal is shameful.
All donations made thru 11/15 will be matched by a generous sponsor, up to $5000!💚350tacoma.org/donate or link in our bio💚Stewardship🌿An important part of our work is providing opportunities for community members to give physical care to the local lands and waters which sustain us. This connection helps us more effectively fight to protect what we love, and keeps us grounded in these difficult times. We host monthly trash clean ups from Spring - Fall, focusing on underserved areas and places where the litter is likely to contaminate waterways. This is also our 8th year as site stewards of qʷiqʷəlut ("little marsh") as part of the Tacoma Open Spaces program. This 1.5 acre salt marsh is located on the ancestral tideflats of the Puyallup Tribe, in what is known today as the Port of Tacoma. Your donations help us afford snacks and supplies for these events, and possibly allow us to give small stipends to the volunteers that keep these programs going!

Work parties happen regularly on the second Saturday of the month. 350 Tacoma has cared for little marsh for eight years now as part of the Tacoma Open Spaces Program. Little marsh is located on the ancestral tideflats of the Puyallup Tribe, in what is known today as the Port of Tacoma, offers a glimpse of what the area looked like prior to colonization, and provides much needed habitat among the sea of concrete.
