The Oregon legislature is getting to work, and Oregon has a great opportunity to grow its clean energy economy.
The impacts that we knew would burden Oregon years in the future – droughts, wildfires, rising sea levels, and more – are already happening now. According to a recent Global Warming Commission report, Oregon is not even close to meeting our state climate goals for 2020.
While the federal government has started rolling back progress on climate change, Oregon can forge a better way! Urgent and bold action is needed to push forward solutions that curb our pollution and spur the transition to clean energy.
Oregon legislators need to hear from us that climate change is a priority.
At the state level, Oregon can limit climate pollution, invest in clean energy solutions, and improve transportation, making communities stronger, healthier, and more equitable. Legislators will only make these strategies a priority if people like you tell them that you want them to act.
Big polluters have worked for decades to block progress. Please tell your elected officials in Oregon to stand up to big polluters like oil and gas companies.
