Oregon, it's time to get involved!
Are you wondering where you can engage in person? Look no further—four events are coming up that you should consider attending!
  • Just. Do it.

    by KC Golden on

    The impacts of fossil fuels are not just environmentally catastrophic, they’re deeply inequitable. Those who do the least to cause climate disruption are hit hardest by it. To break free from fossil fuels, we need strategies that deliver effective, affordable solutions and economic opportunity for all.

  • Fossil free forward!

    by Vlad Gutman-Britten on

    Today in Olympia, House and Senate committees both advanced proposals to move us faster towards 100% fossil-free electricity—meaning a cleaner world, a stronger economy, and healthier communities. 

  • Cities and states still leading the way on climate

    by Devon Downeysmith on

    As Washington (and soon, Oregon) legislatures consider climate and clean energy legislation, cities are striding forward. So is the clean energy economy, despite go-slow signals from the US government.

  • Let's get real: the state of the union is up to us.

    by Joëlle Robinson on

    Progress, fortunately, isn’t just about the performance of the federal government. In Washington, our legislature has big opportunities for climate leadership right now.

  • People power. For the win.

    by Joëlle Robinson on

    Governor Inslee's decision today to shut down plans for a massive new oil terminal is a massive win for the people of the Northwest standing up against the fossil fuel industry.
