There are times when you can feel community power, years of work, and perhaps a bit of magic coalescing into the change we desperately need. Last night was one of those moments, as many of us gathered to celebrate recent events in the Zenith Energy saga\u2014most notably DEQ\u2019s unexpected investigation of Zenith\u2019s McCall dock, and its ensuing decision to pause Zenith\u2019s air quality permit process.<\/p>\n
Two of our new City Council members, Angelita Morillo and Mitch Green joined us and shared their plans to champion climate justice once in office. Angelita Morillo spoke passionately about 350PDX\u2019s and Mosquito Fleet\u2019s kayak tour of the Critical Energy Infrastructure Hub, detailing how it revealed the hub\u2019s impact on nearby communities and ecosystems\u2014and how it inspired her commitment to action.<\/p>\n
Other inspiring speakers included our fearless Fossil Fuel Campaign Manager, Dineen O\u2019Rourke, and Columbia Riverkeeper Senior Community Organizer, Kate Murphy.<\/p>\n
Stay tuned as we await DEQ\u2019s next steps and forge our own. We\u2019ll keep you posted every step of the way. We won\u2019t stop until we get what we want. #StopZenith<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
