Say it with us: forest defense is climate defense! It's time for the @POTUS to take concrete action to protect mature and old growth forests on public land. #WorthMoreStanding
Last Thursday, activists in Portland rallied together to let @POTUS know that he needs to keep his promise and protect mature and old growth forests. These trees are #WorthMoreStanding and we should #LetThemGrow! Check out our ongoing campaign here: https://t.co/D2hw9aW17h

Disappointed with this misleading coverage from @AngelinaDixson and @KVALnews. Supporters of electrification policy far outweighed opponents, with 63 community members voicing support for the climate policy and over 100 rallying in support. https://t.co/v63Hd0AUJz

Don't forget: as long as @nwnatural exists, it will fight against the necessary transition from polluting methane gas to clean, renewable electricity.

"When you're in a hole, stop digging. Stop building out the system. Stop increasing emissions. It's time to figure out how do we reduce the impact of the natural gas system not continue adding thousands of customers." - CUB's Bob Jenks on @KBOO
