We wanted to uplift these two actions happening this week that you won’t want to miss! This Friday, we’re joining our youth climate activist partners at the Youth vs. ODOT Rally to demand our leaders decarbonize Oregon’s transportation system. Then on Saturday, we’ll join the Rally for Salmon in solidarity with tribal activists and others calling for better protections for salmon and the Snake River. See you there!
