SUMMARY:Oregon Climate Action Plan Town Hall
DESCRIPTION:Make Your Voice Heard! \nWe need your help protecting the Oregon Climate Action Plan (OCAP) from the fossil fuel industry! In two weeks\, join Oregon League of Conservation Voters for a virtual town hall hosted by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality\, and speak up in support of a strong climate action plan! Sign up here! \nAfter Governor Brown signed the Oregon Climate Action Plan last March\, state agencies have begun making plans to implement it and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. This is great—except\, some of these plans are not strong enough\, and polluting industries are trying to weaken them even further. The fossil fuel industry will stop at nothing to save themselves\, even if it means destroying our planet and putting our communities at risk. \nThat’s where we come in. This is a climate crisis—a climate emergency\, and we’re seeing the effects firsthand during this intense wildfire season. We have no time to waste! We need to make sure that the Oregon Climate Action Plan is as strong as possible for future generations. Please join one of the Department of Environmental Quality’s virtual town halls and drown out the voices of big polluters! \nUsing the form below\, RSVP to (virtually!) You can attend whichever of the town halls works best for you! \nHere are the dates: \nThursday\, Oct. 1\, 5 p.m. – 8 p.m.\nThursday\, Oct. 8\, 5 p.m. – 8 p.m.\nWednesday\, Oct. 14\, 1 p.m. – 4 p.m.

SUMMARY:Nuclear Conflict–The Growing Threat and a Call to Action
DESCRIPTION:Hear a live talk from Dr. Ira Helfand\, a two-time Nobel Peace Laureate (in 1985 on behalf of International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War and in 2017 on behalf of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons). \nFormer Defense Secretary William Perry says that we are closer to nuclear war than we were during the Cold War. The scientific and medical community predict that even a very limited nuclear war that involves less than 1% of the world’s nuclear arsenals would cause enough climate disruption to trigger a global famine\, putting 2 billion people at risk of starvation. There is growing international movement to prohibit and eliminate nuclear weapons through the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. “Back from the Brink\,” a US organization\, works to bring about fundamental change in U.S. nuclear policy and encourage the effort for a verifiable\, enforceable\, timebound agreement to dismantle the remaining 14\,000 nuclear weapons around the world.
