Jordan Cove Energy Project panel webinar, the day FERC approved it

Conservation Today

This is a March 19, 2020 presentation sponsored by the Great Old Broads for Wilderness about the Jordan Cove Energy Project. It was supposed to be a live panel given in Portland. But with Corvid, the live presentation was replaced by a webinar, and thus you get to listed to it. In the morning of March 19, the U.S. Government gave the Canadian corporation, Pembina, permission to condemn land for the Jordan Cove Energy Project. So it was a timely presentation. We hear from myself, Francis Eatherington, Pam Ordway, a landowner near Camas Valley whose land is threatened with eminent domain, Damon Motz-Storey from Oregon Physicians for Social Responsibility, and Anu Sawkar, an attorney with Crag Law Center. The Great Old Broads for Wilderness is a grassroots organization, led by women, that engages and inspires activism to preserve and protect wilderness and wild lands.
