Rally For Climate Forests in Portland! Thursday Nov 17th, 11:30am, Terry Schrunk Plaza
Manage episode 347244202 series 2887881
Join us TOMORROW (or today, depending on when you're listening), Thursday, November 17th, 11:30am, at Terry Schrunk Plaza in Downtown Portland, as we rally to say that Mature and Old Growth Forests are Worth More Standing!
Preserving our mature and old-growth forests is one of the best ways we can fight climate change, as well as preserve wildlife habitat and drinking water. Join us and other activists rallying across the country to make sure the Forest Service (and the President!) know our forests are worth more standing!
We'll start gathering between 11:30 AM and noon at Terry Schrunk Plaza (directly across from the regional Forest Service office) for live music and hot drinks, to make art together, and deliver a petition signed by over 100,000 forest lovers from across the US to make our message loud and clear that we need a lasting, durable rule that protects these climate forests from destructive logging projects.
Bring a mug and a sign that says what you love most about Oregon's public forests! Carpools are currently being organized from Eugene as well. Sign up for more details and updates on this important event.
