The 350PDX Fossil Fuel Resistance Team meets every 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month, rotating between virtual and in-person.
In order to fight the climate crisis, it is necessary to keep the remaining fossil fuel (coal, oil, gas) reserves in the ground and create a clear pathway towards a just transition that protects communities on the frontlines of dirty energy extraction. The Pacific Northwest is currently facing many active proposals for new fossil fuel infrastructure that would put communities in danger and lock us into the fossil fuel economy and its carbon pollution for decades to come. The Fossil Fuel Resistance team is one of 350PDX’s most longstanding teams, and has been successfully working to stop new fossil fuel projects from being built in Portland and across the PNW region and beyond.
We have many active campaigns right now and would love for you to join us! Here’s a glimpse of some of the projects we’re currently working on. Together with our partners, we’ve won against big fossil fuel giant corporations before, and we are committed to continue to defeat them!
- Zenith Energy‘s tar sands oil terminal expansion in NW Portland.
- Fighting the greenwashing of dirty and polluting “natural” (fracked!) gas.
- And many more!
