Get involved in Oregon’s Beyond Coal Campaign
Powder River Basin
We cannot let coal stand in the way of our clean energy future
While the Northwest Power and Conservation Council (NWPCC) is developing a plan that shows how the region can achieve a clean energy future, Portland General Electric plans to keep us locked into burning coal from Oregon’s dirty coal plant for another 30 years. We need to stand up and ask decision-makers to deliver our clean, coal-free future.
The Northwest has a dirty little secret, we are heavily reliant on coal. Oregon gets a whopping 41% of its energy from coal and Washington relies on coal for 20% of it’s energy mix. It’s destroying the land and communities of our neighboring states while polluting our air and water here in the Northwest.
