ReSources

Founded in 1982, RE Sources is a nonprofit organization working to protect the environment and communities of the central Salish Sea region and our climate. They catalyze community action to build a lasting legacy for all of us — clean water, protected shorelines, an end to dangerous fossil fuel projects, and recovery for orcas and salmon.

RE Sources gives people practical ways to make a real difference for the planet, from passing stronger laws that protect the environment and empowering youth voices, to holding corporate polluters accountable, reducing waste and our own carbon footprint. They do this through smart policy, grassroots mobilization, hands-on science and environmental education.

Their deep roots and broad connections in Northwest Washington allow them to inspire and mobilize thousands of people to protect the beauty and bounty of the region. Learn more.
