This morning, British Columbia's Climate Minister John Yap and Washington's Director of Ecology Ted Sturdevant signed a pair of agreements on joint climate action. (Early media coverage here and here.)
One agreement commits to mutually supporting efforts to move toward carbon neutral state/provincial governmental operations.
The second agreement sets out a plan for working together to educate the public about climate impacts, particularly sea level rise, an area where BC and Washington have much in common.
Neither agreement carries the force of law.
