Oregon has the tools to repair and revamp our aging grid Joshua Basofin Thu, 08/21/2025 - 2:14 pm

The Central Coast AgLink (CCAL), recently launched by the Community Environmental Council, offers a model for connecting farmers and ranchers with technical, educational, and financial resources across San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and Ventura Counties. While CalCAN was not directly

Since 2008, and even more since 2018 and 2023, private equity firms have been buying up real estate and rental properties across the U.S. No firm has preyed up on…

​​Law Clerk Annie Fox started at the Council as a legal intern, before being hired as a law clerk. Fox brings a unique perspective to the Council from her time living in Florida and working to protect the Florida Everglades. 

Where are you from and what’s your background? 

I’m from Miami, Florida, so I grew up enjoying the sun, afternoon lightning storms, being surrounded by ducks, and with little lizards darting across my path. Even close to a big city, I spent time in large trees and in the water, so I always felt connected to nature. As a child, I felt a sense of wrongness as wildlife was replaced by urban sprawl, and I suppose that is where my environmentalism took root. My first major environmental actions were working to protect and restore the Florida Everglades, and I think the idea of becoming an environmental lawyer first arose when, after college, I served on the Executive Board of Friends of the Everglades. 

You waited to go to law school, though. Why?

I always loved science, particularly biology. So, I majored in biology at Swarthmore College, then traveled out west studying population ecology. I wanted to help figure out how to best restore ecosystems, but I soon realized that as much as doing so requires more scientific knowledge, there was a more immediate need for laws and policies to protect them. I was also surprised to learn how many of the beneficial laws we have simply aren’t enforced without the efforts of groups like the Council. So, I returned to law school as an older student with a family, and whenever that felt daunting, I thought about how Marjorie Stoneman Douglas began a new career as an environmental champion in her 70s when she founded Friends of the Everglades.

How long have you been with the Council?

I was an intern in the summer of 2018, and have been back for about 11 months.

What’s your expertise you bring to the Council? How do you use it to fight for a cleaner environment?

I think my science background is very helpful. One of the exciting features of environmental law is the need to continually become conversant in various technical matters, like understanding the engineering involved in power plant construction to evaluate permit conditions, or the biology of an area being impacted by a project. I am comfortable picking up scientific literature and diving into numbers, which is an asset in environmental advocacy.

Also, I grew up at the intersections of various cultures, which helps me understand the needs and motivations of various individuals and groups involved in environmental issues. I was raised below the poverty line, yet had the privilege of attending an elite private school. I was by far in the religious and ethnic minority in school, yet in many ways still benefited from white privilege in other areas of life. That background helps me appreciate where people are coming from when approaching environmental issues, has taught me both how easy it is to erroneously attribute motives to people, and the importance of active listening. I think it also makes me more sensitive to the environmental justice challenges that permeate environmental issues.

I also developed useful skills during the years I served on the Environmental Advisory Council for the Borough of Swarthmore, including time as Chair. That experience gives me valuable insight into the nuances of local politics, the sometimes unexpected ways in which communities are impacted by environmental issues, and the value of open space and a healthy environment to people’s daily lives.

Why did you want to return to working for the Council after being a legal intern? What’s your favorite aspect of working here?

I love that I get to do work that matters by helping both the environment and people. I also enjoy the variety of the work, getting to be involved in both regulatory matters and litigation. Most of all, though, I love the people at the Council. Everyone I have worked with is not only deeply committed to the issues, but is genuine, kind, and passionate, often with fascinating outside interests and hobbies. I am honored to be part of a community that cares deeply about the world.

What are you working on? 

Right now I am primarily working on challenges to permits for potential new power plants. In granting the permits, the agencies skipped important steps like evaluating the true costs of the proposed projects to Pennsylvanians, and in some cases would allow illegally high levels of harmful air emissions.

What legal battles or challenges are you following closely in Pennsylvania?

The legal challenges to Pennsylvania joining RGGI, the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, may have far-reaching consequences to our ability to fight climate change. Also, I am watching the courts’ evolving stance on the environmental rights of Pennsylvania’s residents which are protected by the Environmental Rights Amendment of the Pennsylvania Constitution. Those rights were ignored for a long time, and I am proud of the Council’s advocacy to ensure that the people, including future generations of Pennsylvanians, receive the full protections guaranteed by our Constitution.

We’re living in challenging times with an escalating climate disaster devastating communities from Texas and Louisiana to Richmond, CA. Few institutions are as responsible for these crisis as Wall Street…

(August 20, 2025) The fight to preserve Pennsylvanians’ right to clean air, safe water, and a healthy environment won another huge victory this week as Alterra Energy announced it had ended plans to open a facility in Sugarloaf Township.

Alterra was hoping to open a “chemical recycling” facility in this rural area of Luzerne County. Despite dubbing its work “recycling,” however, Alterra’s rebranding of outdated trash incineration is no solution for the climate crisis. The plant would have been conducting plastic pyrolysis, a way of cutting chemical bonds with heat powered by burning fossil fuels. The “recycled” plastic this method produces is actually mostly made of new fossil fuel-derived materials and is, at most, 10% recycled material. 

Its byproducts are even worse: toxic chemicals that are linked to health problems like cancers, liver and kidney damage, birth defects, nervous system issues, reproductive problems, and respiratory issues. This facility, which would have operated around the clock, would have produced chemical pollution in the air and water, and would have generated plastic waste that includes the worst of the worst pollutants: known carcinogen benzene, dioxins, PFAS “forever chemicals,” and volatile organic compounds or VOCs.

Not only would facility employees have been exposed to plastic dust and chemical vapors on the job, but they would also be at risk of dangerous fires. Toxic and very flammable synthetic oil would have been stored in two 185,000-gallon tanks on the property before being transported in trucks and rail cars. On top of these hazards, such a plant would have been a nuisance to the residents of Sugarloaf, bringing traffic, noise, light, and air pollution, and damaging rural roads. 

Members of the Luzerne County Community Coalition were vocal in their opposition to this proposed site and are celebrating this news. Local residents collaborated in their organizing with neighbors from nearby Northumberland County who just last year stood strong against a similar proposal for their area from Texas-based company Encina. Sugarloaf even had support from a resident of Akron, Ohio, where Alterra has been operating an incineration plant whose permit renewal was loudly opposed by the community this summer. 

Clean Air Council and its partners – including Beyond Plastics, Save Our Susquehanna, Moms Clean Air Force, Physicians for Social Responsibility Pennsylvania, and Environmental Health Project – were proud to support the Luzerne community as they sought to understand the potential harms of Alterra’s proposed facility and the influence they might wield. The Council commends this level of passion and commitment to a healthy environment and hopes to see this type of collaboration continue throughout the Commonwealth.

On July 30 2025, Union Pacific Railroad and Norfolk Southern Railroad filed NOTICE OF INTENT TO FILE APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF TRANSACTION
SUBJECT TO 49 U.S.C. §§ 11323-25 with the Surface Transportation Board.

This merger would create the first coast-to-coast railroad company. Decades of mergers have reduced the number of major railroad companies in the US from over 100 to six. Each merger comes with loss of routes, as the merged company sets out to eliminate ‘redundant’ routes and track, and increased regional monopoly. Redundancy generally means more than one route between two large cities. The places between are railroad flyover country. Lines that are not abandoned are sold as shortlines. The shortlines connect only with the tracks of the original owner, preserving the monopoly.

US railroads prefer the most profitable traffic, i.e., the heaviest possible shipments in the greatest number of cars per shipments, traveling the longest possible distance. Other traffic is generally discouraged through high rates or bad service. Shippers that do not fit the railroad company’s profitability profile find that trucking is superior to anything the railroad offers.

Employees and facilities will also be considered ‘redundant.’ When employees are considered ‘redundant,’ there are some basic economic protections that can be applied, but generally nothing that benefits the person long-term. When facilities are closed, there will be negative effect on the local economy.

This merger would leave BNSF Railway and CSX Transportation at a disadvantage, so their merger application could easily be anticipated, exacerbating the effect.

The only beneficiary of the merger would be the banking, stock owning and trading entities, and corporate interests collectively known as ‘Wall Street.’

STB must be flooded with comments about this merger. Here is a page showing how to do it.

Join the Renewable Hydrogen Alliance at the 2025 Northwest Renewable Hydrogen Conference – the longest running and only locally led hydrogen conference in the Pacific Northwest. Returning to Portland, Oregon on Tuesday, September 16, 2025, this year’s conference will focus on the latest policy and project developments in our region and give you the opportunity to network with RHA members, policy partners, and local industry leaders.  

The Conference will also include exclusive RHA member only networking opportunities on Monday, September 15, and will conclude with RHA’s Annual Member Meeting on Wednesday, September 17.

In Montana and across the Northwest, energy demand is climbing. Add to that increasingly severe weather events, and you have a recipe for high costs and insufficient energy and transmission during peak demand. To address this, our region needs more access to reliable, affordable and renewable energy for decades to come. One way to do that is to tap into diverse energy resources by sharing power across a broad, interconnected Western transmission system.

The Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), as the primary distributor of power from federal dams across the Northwest, has transmission lines that stretch throughout the region — including in western Montana. BPA’s lines connect reliable, affordable wind and hydro power to its utility customers, and in turn, to homeowners and businesses in Montana and the region.

For decades, BPA and its partners have traded power to meet local needs. NorthWestern Energy also trades as a member of an existing western market that has garnered the utility over $134 million in benefits since 2021. But as energy demand climbs and severe weather stresses our grid, we must modernize the system. That’s why a broad array of stakeholders is expanding the current energy trading market to access lower-cost electricity, particularly during times of severe weather when electricity demand peaks.

This larger and more robust market, known as the Extended Day Ahead Market (EDAM), will build upon the success of the existing western power market and allow for even more stability, by buying and selling electricity the day before it’s needed. Unfortunately, a smaller, less robust market is also vying for our utilities’ business—the Southwest Power Pool’s Markets+.

Done well, expanding the existing energy market can strengthen our regional economy and increase energy resilience by accessing diverse, low-cost energy resources. However, choosing the wrong market could do just the opposite – translating into escalating energy bills, less reliable energy supplies, and fewer low-cost, renewable energy resources to meet growing energy needs. Like any market a larger size provides more opportunity to find the lowest cost options to meet our needs. This is why several Western utilities have announced intentions to join the larger EDAM market.

Regrettably, BPA recently announced its plan to join the Arkansas-based, Markets+, a surprising decision in light of the clear benefits of expanding a Western market through EDAM. BPA’s own studies show that joining Markets+ is a costly decision: Over the next decade, customers in the region could pay over $4 billion due to BPA’s choice. Because BPA operates 80 percent of the Northwest’s transmission system and sells power to nearly all utilities in the region, most of us can expect to face higher monthly bills as a result.

Fearing escalating power costs, energy and business leaders around the region have voiced serious concerns about BPA’s choice to join Markets+. But BPA ignored Montanans and hundreds of others across the region, who had urged the agency to prioritize EDAM’s larger market and resource diversity, to save costs for utility customers.

We urge BPA, the region’s largest energy supplier, to reconsider its decision. This is a pivotal moment in our energy future, and decisions today will have ramifications for generations to come. We all share the goal of abundant, affordable energy. As residents and utility customers, western Montanans have invested in BPA for decades. It’s incumbent on BPA to return that public investment by safeguarding our shared resources and protecting our region’s future.

As BPA’s own analysis shows, joining EDAM is the best answer for BPA and other utilities in our region. By doing so, we become part of a regional solution that will cut customers’ costs, improve regional energy reliability, increase the development of clean energy, and secure our children and grandchildren a more prosperous future.

Consider free public transport for all, not just buses for under-22s, say campaigners  

Greener Jobs Alliance is a supporter of Fare Free London, a community based campaign for free public transport in London.  They have just issued the following statement to the House of Commons Transport Committee and to Transport Minister Heidi Alexander, which GJA has signed up to.

The undersigned organisations welcome the House of Commons Transport Committee’s call for a pilot scheme providing free all-day bus travel to under-22s – and we call for a more wide-ranging study on the potential for universal free travel on all types of public transport.

The committee states that access to free travel would help to remove “barriers to education, training and employment for the next generation”, but it is not only the young who experience these barriers. The burden borne by millions of households due the high fares as well as to the deterioration of bus services over the past decade is well documented.

High fares and poor public transport services exacerbate social inequality, and obstruct progress away from car-centred transport systems – and not only on buses. Trains, including the underground, add to the problem.

With regard to buses, the Transport Committee is calling for a change in the way that funding is provided. We believe that that change should be applied to public transport as a whole.  

We call for the Committee and the government to consider the potential of universal free public transport, which has been successfully introduced in a range of European cities, including the capitals of Luxembourg, Estonia and Serbia, and more than 130 cities in Brazil.

We’re thrilled to share some big news: Solarpunk Magazine has officially been recognized as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

This milestone means that we’re no longer just a magazine—we’re a mission-driven nonprofit dedicated to nurturing solarpunk stories, essays, and art as a public good. For us, this is more than a tax designation. It’s a way to safeguard the values that inspired Solarpunk Magazine in the first place: community, creativity, climate action, and hope for a better future. 

Why We Made This Choice

From the beginning, our goal has been clear: to create a platform where writers, artists, and thinkers can explore visions of a sustainable, just, and imaginative world. We’re not here to chase profits—we’re here to build culture and a better world.

We recognize and understand that the nonprofit complex has its issues, and we hold space for that reality as we move forward. At the same time, there’s no better way we know of to ensure that our resources will always flow back into the mission: paying contributors and editors fairly, amplifying underrepresented voices, and bringing solarpunk to wider audiences. This structure protects the magazine from being co-opted by corporate or private interests. Solarpunk Magazine now belongs firmly to the movement, to the community, and to the future we’re all working toward.

What This Means for You

Here’s how nonprofit status directly benefits our readers and supporters:

• Tax-deductible donations: Any donation you make to Solarpunk Magazine is now tax-deductible in the U.S. Your support not only fuels our mission—it also benefits you at tax time.
• More opportunities for funding: As a nonprofit, we can now apply for grants and partner with cultural institutions, universities, and libraries. This means more ambitious projects, more diverse contributors, and more resources for paying creators and editors.
• Community-first publishing: Our nonprofit structure ensures that the magazine exists for the solarpunk community, not shareholders or profit margins. We’re accountable to you, our readers.

Building a Stronger Future Together

This change sets us up for long-term sustainability. With nonprofit status, we can:

• Develop bigger and better issues of the magazine.
• Expand into new formats—anthologies, audio narratives, live events.
• Pay our editorial staff what they’re worth, and support more writers, artists, and essayists in sharing their visions of a solarpunk world.
• Build partnerships that help solarpunk ideas reach beyond our pages and into classrooms, community centers, and cultural spaces.

Our vision is to create a lasting home for solarpunk storytelling—a platform that will continue inspiring, challenging, and imagining for years to come.

How You Can Be Part of This

We wouldn’t be here without you in the first place. And now, there are more ways than ever to get involved:

1. Become a monthly donor—your contributions are now tax-deductible. When you become a monthly donor at $25 or more, we’ll email all of our digital magazine issues straight to inbox the day they release. There are also options for annual and one-time donations.

DONATE NOW

2. Spread the word by sharing this announcement with friends, networks, and fellow readers. Just copy and paste the link below:

https://solarpunkmagazine.com/solarpunk-magazine-is-now-a-nonprofit

3. Volunteer your skills, ideas, or connections. As we move forward, we’ll be updating the community with ways you can volunteer to help us grow!

This milestone belongs to all of us—readers, writers, artists, editors, and supporters—who believe in the power of solarpunk to reshape the stories we tell about the future. Together, we can ensure that solarpunk remains a vital, thriving part of the cultural landscape.

Becoming a nonprofit is one more way we’re committing to that vision. Solarpunk Magazine isn’t just a publication—it’s a community project, a shared dream, and a collective act of imagination.

Here’s to the next chapter.
Here’s to a solarpunk future.

Patty Berne,a Japanese-Haitian person with light brown skin, smiles playfully with love and light shining from their brown eyes. They wear an off the shoulder opalescent blue dress and an amethyst pendant. Their brown hair is pulled back into their signature two buns. Behind Patty is a pink background with radiant red and yellow flowers. Text reads: Remembering Patty Berne. Illustration by Nomy Lam.

On May 29, 2025, our community lost a dear friend and comrade, Patty Berne. Patty was co-founder and longtime Executive and Artistic Director of Sins Invalid and a primary architect of the Disability Justice movement, its 10 Principles, and core practices that center the lives, wisdom, and leadership of disabled queer and trans Black and brown people.

A few words from Movement Generation collective members from the past and present share some reflections on Patty’s beautiful life and legacy (audio version available here):

“I first experienced the gift of Patty Berne as a college student, as we were both members of Students Against Intervention in Central America. It was a bad-ass space of fierce and successful organizing, made possible in so many ways by Patty’s brilliance and visionary leadership. Patty always led with joy, discipline, directness, and tremendous political clarity. They took internationalism very seriously, and pushed us to think and act and care in innovative and necessary ways. Patty was great at getting us to cultivate curiosity, lean into discomfort, and foster our revolutionary learning edges as we did so. And: Patty was funny as fuck. Always. Their irreverence was delightful, refreshing, healing. Thank you Patty, for shining so bright, so true, so potent. ¡Patty Berne, presente!” –Mateo Nube

“What Patty taught me, I can never un-learn: that if capitalism depends on ableism—that industrial production brought with it measuring a person’s worth by how much profit their they can produce—then disability justice requires the end of capitalism. In other words, if we’re committed to a world where all mind-bodies are truly sacred and worthy of care and belonging, then we have to re-organize our relationships around collective care, interdependence, and mutual aid. I am forever indebted to Patty for their friendship, comradeship, and mentorship. I will miss her political brilliance, her artistic production, her always super-fly style. I am so grateful to have recorded a conversation with Patty in what we didn’t know would be their last year of life. If it would do you good to hear her voice, I invite you to listen here.” –Brooke Anderson

“I absolutely 100 percent move more boldly in everything I do since meeting Patty Berne.  Without a doubt they shifted my perspective, approach, and beliefs about my body and all bodies: no body is disposable and our bodies – disabled, queer, crazy, funky- are sexy as fuck. I sometimes forget this about myself, but Patty’s way of pushing with stern care, humor and realness continues to be instructive and inspiring and allows me to experience the worthiness, sensuality, and love for all bodies and all life. Thank you, Patty. I will never be the same and I am grateful.” –Angela Aguilar

“Patty showed me how to move from a place of unapologetic and fierce love. She could say ‘that’s not right and here’s another perspective’ in a way that could help bring someone into their heart instead of shame and defensiveness. Patty did that all with a twinkle in her eye, a flawlessly made-up face, a delightful giggle, and a lightness that made radical change feel imminently possible instead of heavy and hard.” –Michelle Mascarenhas

“Patty took us all under their wing, and for that I am forever grateful. A legend. A teacher. A beautiful human. Patty taught me how to be unapologetically myself. To embrace the complexity of being human at this time on earth, and to turn towards the moment with both fiery rage and the deepest, most expansive love possible. I am a better person, comrade, and leader because of Patty. Rest in MFing power, Patty Berne.” –Ellen Choy

“What I cherish is Patty’s smile and kindness; the fierce conviction and the loving critiques.  Patty was unafraid to grapple with the contradictions of all of our lives and the worlds we are navigating.  She taught me to let go of the fear of mistakes and the violent lie of perfection. She was always here for her communities and I know she always will be.” –Gopal Dayaneni

WHYY: SEPTA funding still in limbo despite Pennsylvania Senate approval of budget amendment – Pennsylvania lawmakers reached an impasse this week, as a budget approved by the Republican-controlled state Senate made its way to the Democrat-controlled state House. The budget, presented by state Sen. Joe Picozzi, R-Philadelphia, provides funding for SEPTA, but draws the money from the Public Transportation Trust Fund. Opponents of the budget shared concerns that diverting this money, which was earmarked for necessary system and safety upgrades, could ultimately result in less safe, outdated service from transit agencies.

Mass Transit: SEPTA completes critical track work on trolley tunnel under Schuylkill River – SEPTA has completed extensive track upgrades, general maintenance, and cleaning during its 30 day closure of the trolley tunnel under the Schuylkill River. The upgrades set the transit agency up for its planned trolley modernization. Turnstiles at 19th Street Station and 22nd Street Station have also been removed, meaning customers now must tap to pay when they enter the trolley.
