Climate justice group Kicking Gas is expanding efforts to Snohomish County
EVERETT — The Whidbey Island-based climate justice group Kicking Gas is expanding its mission of helping households transition to electric appliances across Snohomish County, supporting the switch by covering up to 75% of installation costs.
With a Philanthropy Northwest Thriving Communities grant, the nonprofit has been focusing new efforts in Lynnwood, Marysville, Tulalip, Darrington and South Everett.
“The Kicking Gas campaign is more than a project — it’s a community movement,” said Kicking Gas campaign lead Derek Hoshiko in a press release. “We’re working together to protect our environment, improve air quality, and make homes across Snohomish County more resilient for generations to come.”
While the group’s core mission is to reduce fossil fuels and pollution from gas-burning stoves, electrical appliances have public health benefits as well.
