Power Past Coal
Coal
companies are targeting Northwest Ports as the gateway for coal export
terminals that would send staggering quantities of U.S. coal to Asia.
While Oregon invests in clean-technology jobs for wind, wave, and
solar energy, the coal export terminals would reverse major commitments
to reduce the state’s contribution to global warming pollution. We won’t
let Oregon become a way station for dirty coal.
- Please join us by signing a petition urging elected officials to oppose West coast coal export terminals.

Stand up for clean air -Take Action!
Our clean air laws have been protecting and improving Americans' lives for 40 years.
With the failure of Congress to make progress on reducing global warming pollution, the Clean Air Act is Americans best safeguard for federal action on climate change. Now the same people who are trying to take away the clean air assurances we’ve had since the 1970s are also trying to prevent the EPA from reducing global warming pollution.
Call our Senators and ask them to oppose any attempts to weaken the Clean Air Act. Senator Wyden (202) 224-5244 and Senator Merkley (202) 224-3753
