Cascadia Scorecard: Seven Key Trends Shaping the Northwest

On March 10, Northwest Environment Watch (NEW) released the Cascadia Scorecard, a new gauge of regional progress that monitors seven key trends–health, economy, population, energy, sprawl, forests, and pollution–that are profoundly shaping the region’s future.

The Scorecard puts a spotlight on the long view and the questions that most matter over time: Are we living longer, healthier lives? Are we building strong human communities? Are we handing down to our children a place whose ecosystems are regenerating?

By highlighting the places who “score” best, the Scorecard will also offer a practical vision for a better Northwest.
