On Wednesday March 1st, The Senate Environment and Natural Resources Committee will hear public testimony on proposals promoting comprehensice greenhouse gas emissions (Climate Poulltion) reduction legislation. The hearing is scheduled for 3:00 – 4:45 pm. However, a climate rally is being organized for 1:00 2:00 pm at the Capitol (somewhere, we don’t know yet – watch this space). The Southern Oregon Climate Coalition is planning to carpool / van to Salem and is also scheduling visits with our House and Senate representatives. We anticipate leaving from the Rogue Action Center (Rogue Climate Office – 3932 S Pacific Hwy, Medford, OR) around 8:00 am and returning probably by around 10:00 pm – though it may be later depending on appointment times. Anyone interested in joining the Southern Oregonian excursion to Salem, should contact Alan Journet 541-301-4107.
