Event hosted by Oregon Community Rights Network and Community Rights Lane County.
April 6th @6pm
Living in Oregon, home to 67 native tree species, it is in our DNA to protect this resource that enhances our quality of life in so many ways. So, it is probably no surprise to learn that Google says there are 714 environmental groups in our state, many of them focused on woodlands.
This year, as we approach Earth Day, we want to move deeper into the forest and connect our activist hearts to a more mystical discussion about trees and forests, streams and rivers.
We want to ask the question, “What is it about the forest that makes you do what you do?”
Join our guests:
- Carol Van Strum: A venerated environmental activist who since 1975 has fought against the use of pesticides, including Agent Orange, being sprayed in Oregon’s Siuslaw National Forest.
- Andrew Collins-Anderson: Co-director, Coast Range Assoc. and host of Coast Range Radio.
- David Tvedt: ORCRN board member, Our Forests board member, degree in Forestry/Resource Conservation.
- Kai Hushchke, our moderator, ORCRN board president and Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund, Community Organizer.
