The Trump administration and Cliff Bentz are pushing forward damaging laws that will be devastating for Oregon public lands. This could soon mean more logging in protected areas, more drilling in our public areas, and less access for our communities. Make your voice heard to your representatives, protest when you can, and don't be quiet.
Trump's EPA is now claiming that climate change is not a threat to human existence. Resist this in conversation with others when discussing his policies. Talk about the effects that YOU are seeing. Talk about the things that can change our direct community. Talk about it often.Â
Educate yourself on the Wildfire Risk Map - its benefits and its flaws. Work with your neighborhood to create a FireWise Community. Make sure the property you live on is ready for fire season.

Attend gardening classes with local organizations like La Pine Grange, Deschutes Public Library, the Oregon State Master Gardener Program, and The Environmental Center.
