DEFENDING BLACK LIVES
What We Must Do To Dismantle White Supremacy
350.org Webinar
Thursday June 4 at 5:00 pm PT
From 350.org: We must fight for justice for George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Sean Reed, Tony McDade, and so many others. That means confronting white supremacy in order to build a climate movement rooted in justice. It’s up to all of us (especially White people and non-black people of color) to step up in this moment, which is why we’re hosting a webinar this Thursday to share resources and actions you can take right now.
RSVP HERE
This webinar will focus on what it means to truly fight for climate justice and how to center racial justice and equity. We’ll discuss ways to work towards dismantling white supremacy and actions you can take where you live to support Black lives.

The Jordan Cove LNG Terminal and Pacific Connector Pipeline has none of the state permits required to proceed.* But the Trump administration is attempting to undermine state authority to protect clean water. The EPA just issued a rule that will weaken the Clean Water Act. It will most likely face legal challenges from states and advocacy organizations.

*Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) denied Jordan Cove LNG’s Clean Water Act permit; Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) denied Jordan Cove LNG’s Coastal Zone permit; and, anticipating another permit denial, Pembina, the Canadian company behind the project, withdrew its Removal-Fill application from the Oregon Department of State Lands (DSL) in January. Yet In Mid-March the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) conditionally approved the Jordan Cove LNG terminal and pipeline project, The condition was that all required state permits be in place. But they are not.
