The Kicking Gas campaign will host an online information session on transitioning to electric heating on December 3 at 6:30 p. m. via Zoom.

The campaign is spearheaded by the nonprofit For The People, collaborating with several local organizations including the Sno-Isle Sierra Club and the Homes and Hope Community Land Trust. Attending the information session is a requirement to qualify for the Kicking Gas subsidies. The program aims to promote energy savings and improve indoor air quality for residents. The Kicking Gas campaign reflects a growing trend toward sustainable energy solutions in local communities.
