Message from Zella

Hi Mr. Medley,

As you may already know the city of Portland has been working on passing a resolution with a goal of reaching 100% renewable energy by the year 2050.  The environmental leadership group that I am in, including other Grant students, has been closely following the drafts of the resolution and meeting with city officials to make sure it can be as effective as possible.

The most recent draft has a clause removed from previous drafts that defined what renewable energy excludes (fossil fuels, biomass, nuclear, etc.).  This is important if we want to have a truly renewable future.

Would it be possible to take a couple minutes during your classes for students to call city officials and voice the need to add back the clause?  Below I have added a link with more information and directions to call, let me know if you think this is a possibility.

Thank you,

Zella Lobo
