Climate Alliance of the South Sound (CASS)

Marilyn Kimmerling interviews members of the CASS on the fight to protect South Tacoma from the planned mega warehouse. The City of Tacoma and Bridge Industrial (BI), a property management company based out of Chicago, have approved building a massive mega warehouse complex for South Tacoma. If built, it would have an expected size of 2.5 million sq. ft. It would be ranked among the top 10 largest warehouses in the world, bringing in up to 10,000 semi-truck and other vehicle trips A DAY, and eliminating 124 acres of wetland and green space. Underground aquifers would be crushed. Temperatures near the site would rise. Air quality would get worse. Members of CASS want to inform the public of these risks and propose alternatives
