Columbia Gorge Climate Action Network
Why give?
The Columbia Gorge Climate Action Network (CGCAN) educates, organizes and motivates Columbia Gorge activists to reduce and eliminate fossil fuel usage and climate change, at all levels from individual to global. We encourage clean local renewable energy, conservation, community sustainability and resilience throughout our National Scenic Area.
CGCAN is a network of Oregon and Washington residents from the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area. We are alarmed and concerned, about the political, economic and social forces causing climate change from all sources, as well as toxic pollution, energy dependence, and local unemployment due to fossil fuels. We are passionately committed to collective and strategic actions that can effectively impede fossil fuels and reduce climate change.
The forces behind the climate emergency and fossil fuel pollution threaten our future here. We know this threat extends to communities throughout the world. We’re committed to save it from harm. We work with everyone in our neighborhood as educators about the climate and pollution reality. We work with policy makers as citizen-advocates of a sustainable society. Our membership draws from a rich variety of political, philosophical, technical, spiritual, and religious perspectives. We are an intergenerational group and believe that inclusiveness makes us strong.
