SUMMARY:ON SCREEN: Chasing Chimeras: The Lure of Deceptive Climate Solutions
DESCRIPTION:  \n2023. Directed by Barbara Bernstein. Runtime: 55 minutes.  \nAs we confront the existential crisis of climate chaos there are two paths we can take. We can make dramatic changes that meaningfully reduce carbon emissions. Or we can accept the fossil fuel industry’s self-serving climate solutions—renewable diesel\, hydrogen\, renewable natural gas\, biofuels\, carbon capture and storage and carbon offsets. Chasing Chimeras: The Lure of Deceptive Climate Solutions\, a new documentary by Barbara Bernstein\, tells stories of people living in the crosshairs of these proposals\, working to expose the dangers that these projects pose to their lives\, homes\, communities and the planet. In contrast to fossil fuel industry solutions\, the documentary examines the need to implement verified and trusted renewable energy sources (wind\, solar and geothermal)\, energy conservation and nature-based carbon capture and storage solutions that take advantage of natural carbon sinks such as old growth forests and wetlands. \nWhen: Sunday\, September 13. Doors at 6:30 p.m. Screening at 7 p.m. Runtime: 55 minutes. \nWhere: Tomorrow Theater 3530 SE Division St\, Portland\, OR 97202 \nTickets: $15. Purchase tickets here.

SUMMARY:Hanford Public Hearing - Portland
DESCRIPTION:Opportunity to Provide Public Testimony\nThe Hanford Nuclear Site’s Dangerous Waste Permit is out for public comment and the Washington Department of Ecology wants to hear from you.\nThe Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) is holding a public hearing in Portland to solicit public testimony on the Hanford Nuclear Site’s Dangerous Waste Permit. \nIt’s not often Hanford regulators come to Portland seeking input\, nor is it often that public testimony is gathered at Hanford public meetings any more. This is a great time to show up and speak up for communities downstream of Hanford.  \n\nWhen: Sept. 22\, 2026\, 5:30 p.m. \nWhere: Albina Library\, 205 NE Russell Street\, Portland\, OR 97212 \nWhy: Hanford’s Dangerous Waste Permit (also known as Hanford’s Sitewide permit) covers 52 waste sites and facilities at Hanford and is one of the primary resources that Ecology has for overseeing the U.S. Department of Energy’s treatment\, storage\, and disposal of hazardous and radioactive waste. The last time the permit was up for public comment was in 2012. This iteration\, known as Rev. 9A\, is Ecology’s effort to have a current\, enforceable\, consistent\, and implementable permit that is protective of human health and the environment from Hanford’s radioactive and chemical risks\, as well as a response to comments gathered in 2012. Check out Ecology’s  Rev. 9A information page for more details.\nHow: In-person only\n\nUnable to make this in-person meeting? No problem\, Ecology is holding an online hearing on Oct. 7 at 5:30 p.m. You can attend two ways: \n\nZoom\nPhone\n253-215-8782\n253-205-0468\n\nMeeting ID: 862 3423 5565\nPasscode: 820026  \nNot in Portland?

SUMMARY:CANCELED: Oregon's Data Center Advisory Committee Public Listening Session
DESCRIPTION:This session has been canceled!\nThe Oregon Governor’s Data Center Advisory Committee (DCAC) has canceled its upcoming listening session for public input. The session was scheduled for Wednesday\, September 23\, 2026\, from 4 – 7 p.m. before being removed from the committee’s webpage. \nIt’s disappointing that the committee has canceled this important opportunity for public participation\, especially since the previous listening session was fraught with technical issues which prevented many from participating. This now-canceled session was added to address that problem.  \nIn addition\, the DCAC webpage states that it held over nine hours of general public listening sessions in addition to verbal comments from the public at each of their meetings. By our count\, the DCAC only held two sessions of three hours each\, with the second three hour session full of technical difficulties.  \nOn September 10\, the DCAC released a Preliminary Learnings and Questions Document and opened a written public comment period that will be open until 5 p.m. on October 24.   \nColumbia Riverkeeper staff are reviewing the committee’s document and will share our assessment and suggested talking points for comments in the coming weeks. For now\, enjoy your extra three hours of time on Wednesday\, September 23.  \n\nOriginal post:\nNow is your chance to speak up about the massive increase in data centers in Oregon.\nBy: Kate Murphy\, Senior Community Organizer \nOregon is seeing an unprecedented rise in data centers\, resulting in a massive increase in demand for energy\, water\, and land. This is a critical moment to stand up to protect Oregon’s precious natural resources. \n​Governor Kotek convened the Data Center Advisory Committee with the purpose of developing recommendations for a comprehensive regulatory framework to strategically pursue economic development opportunities\, while ensuring utility costs\, infrastructure investments\, and environmental impacts remain sustainable and equitable for all residents\, especially low-income and working families. \nThe Oregon Data Center Advisory Committee is holding monthly meetings as well as public listening sessions\, and they need to hear from you! This is an opportunity for members of the public to express their concerns and questions directly to the Committee during the public comment period. \nPublic Listening Session 3\nSeptember 23\, 2026 \n4 p.m. to 7 p.m. \nJoin the Zoom meeting here. Advance registration is not required. \nThe Data Center Advisory Committee will taking comments on its preliminary findings report. Attendees will have 3 minutes to share their perspectives on a first-come\, first-served basis. \nLearn about more opportunities to get involved with public engagement on data centers in Oregon.

SUMMARY:CEI Hub Public Testimony
DESCRIPTION:We need you to speak up and tell the Portland City Council we must increase safety and reduce risks at the Critical Energy Infrastructure (CEI) Hub! \nThe CEI Hub is a six-mile stretch of dangerous fuel tanks located in Northwest Portland that nearly 90 percent of Oregon’s fuel passes through\, up to 350 million gallons. The tanks are owned by climate villains like Zenith Energy\, BP\, and Chevron. The tanks are unsafe for people\, the rivers\, Forest Park\, and wildlife. In 2025\, the City of Portland received a federal grant to create a policy to make the CEI Hub safer. This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to make meaningful changes to increase CEI Hub safety and decrease risk. \nThe day for public testimony is September 24\, and we need all hands on deck. Join us to demand the Portland City Council prioritize the health and safety of our communities and reduce risks from the CEI Hub. \nWhen: September 24 from 2 – 5 p.m.\nWhat: City Council hearing with public testimony\nThe agenda and a link to the oral testimony registration will be available the Friday before the hearing at this link.\nWhere: Portland City Hall Council Chambers\, 1221 SW Fourth Avenue Portland\n*Wear red\n*Arrive at 1:30pm to grab a snack and screen printed art while supplies last! \nWe hope you can join us at this critical moment to speak up about Portland’s Critical Energy Infrastructure Hub! \nFor more information and resources\, click here. \nPhoto: Alex Milan Tracy
