On Energy & Oil: Transition away from damaging fossil fuels

We have the opportunity, and the economic & environmental incentives, to transition from much of the damaging fossil fuel plants--mostly coal--that we now rely upon for more than 1/2 our electricity to efficiency and new renewable generating technologies

Nothing is more closely associated with Oregon than its natural environment and its ethic of environmental stewardship. And how we enjoy & use those resources is inextricably intertwined with how we supply energy to run our state and our economy.
