The Climate Pledge

What does a more sustainable game day look like?  As Climate Pledge Arena approaches its fifth anniversary, we teamed up with fellow Climate Pledge signatories the Seattle Storm and Climate Pledge Arena to take a look at some of the sustainability features built into the Storm’s home court. Join the Storm’s very own Kayce Kirihara as she takes us on a tour!

Mass timber has the potential to lower the carbon impact of how we build. Now, Climate Pledge signatories are working together to help make it easier to use at scale.

It was a big Climate Week NYC for the Electrifying Drayage Alliance (EDA). 🚛⚡ We officially launched the EDA 2030 Roadmap for the Ports of New York and New Jersey—a practical pathway toward enabling at least 300 battery-electric drayage trucks in the region by 2030. Throughout the week, we brought together leaders from across the freight industry to talk about what it will take to turn that roadmap into action: —> At the EDA NY-NJ Coalition Working Session, members moved straight into implementation, identifying early deployment opportunities, discussing the conditions needed to make them successful, and beginning to organize into workstreams focused on demand, carrier readiness, charging infrastructure, ports and terminals, and market support. The immediate focus: identifying three to five high-utilization lanes that could support early deployments in 2027. —> During a Smart Freight Centre fireside chat, The Climate Pledge’s Sally Fouts (Zwartjes) joined Tom Fisher of C.H. Robinson, Jennie Abarca of King Fio Trucking, LLC, and Derek Turbide of Greenlane™ Infrastructure to continue the conversation around scaling electric drayage. —> And at The Climate Pledge Hub, Coast to Coast: The Electric Freight Playbook brought together Jennie Abarca of King Fio Trucking, Adam Browning of Forum Mobility, Christopher Diamond of The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey, and Adam Orth of Siemens US to share lessons from electric freight deployment in Los Angeles and explore how they can help accelerate progress in New York and New Jersey. One thing came through across every conversation: no one company can scale electric drayage alone. It takes coordination across freight demand, carriers, charging, port operations, financing, and policy. Getting those pieces moving together is exactly what EDA is working to do. If your organization wants to help accelerate electric drayage in New York, New Jersey and beyond, now is the time to join the Electrifying Drayage Alliance. https://bit.ly/4hUjZNN
