Welcome to the Office of Sustainability and Environment web site

OSE’s mission is to accelerate environmentally sustainable practices by the City government and in the community at-large. We collaborate with City departments, business partners, non-profit & community-based organizations, and learning institutions to develop and implement priority sustainability initiatives: climate protection and urban forest restoration and management.

Sustainability initiatives are implemented in departments throughout the City, so be sure to visit our Environmental Priorities page for more information on the City's Environmental Action Agenda, or click over to the Resource Directory for a comprehensive list of City programs.

We hope you find this site useful - and thanks for what you're doing to protect Seattle's unique and wonderful environment!
