SUMMARY:PNW Climate Week: Tree Canopies and Comfortable Living
DESCRIPTION:Join Sierra Club Oregon Chapter as we discover the critical role tree canopies play in creating comfortable living spaces as our climate changes. Hear from experts about how strategically planting trees in urban areas can reduce heat islands\, improve air quality\, and promote mental well-being\, and understand your part in preserving and expanding these crucial green spaces. \nTogether we’ll take a leisurely walk through the wetland with knowledgeable guides who will share fascinating facts about the local flora and fauna. We’ll learn about the diverse habitats that make up this unique ecosystem and how wetlands contribute to clean air\, water quality\, and biodiversity. \nBook Distribution & Author Meet-and-Greet: The first 50 people to RSVP will receive a free copy of “Smith & Bybee Wetlands: An Oasis Restored” upon attendance\, which was written by esteemed community member and outdoor advocate Pamela Slaughter. Pamela is the Executive Director of People of Color Outdoors\, a local outdoor group focused on helping people of color experience and enjoy outdoor spaces! \nFree Tree Giveaway: The Urban Forestry’s Yard Tree Giveaway program aims to provide 4\,500 FREE TREES to Portlanders this fall\, with a focus on neighborhoods with low tree canopy. Urban trees play a vital role in creating healthier\, safer communities. Bringing trees to these areas that need them the most is one of the best ways to improve public and environmental health outcomes. Partner organizations were selected because they are connected to underserved communities and people living in their priority service areas. Partnerships help advance the Yard Tree Giveaway goal of increasing tree canopy where it is most needed. \nYou can help by choosing up to 3 trees to have planted in your community. These trees\, carefully selected for their ability to thrive in our region\, will help your community enjoy the benefits of tree canopies and the shade they provide. The best part is\, the city would plant them for you! \nDon’t miss this incredible opportunity to connect with nature\, learn from experts\, and make a positive impact on your community’s environment. Bring your family and friends for an outing filled with wonder\, knowledge\, and inspiration! \nLet’s work together to preserve our natural wonders and create a sustainable\, equitable future for all. \nLocation: 5235 N Marine Dr\, Portland\, OR 97203\, USA \nRecommended Items: Shoes comfortable for a leisurely walk\, a water bottle (bonus points if it’s reusable) & snacks! \nCancellation Policy: Activity is held rain or shine\, but may be altered due to inclement weather \nRSVP at: https://act.sierraclub.org/events/details?formcampaignid=701Po00001svFCQIA2

SUMMARY:NW Documentary Presents: Other Side of the Hill + 360° Films
DESCRIPTION:​In a time of perceived cultural divide between rural and urban\, left and right\, young and old\, where do we find common ground on climate change? \n​NW Documentary presents a screening of Other Side of the Hill\, a documentary that amplifies the voices of rural community leaders in Eastern Oregon finding hope and opportunity in a changing landscape. From innovative timber operations to large-scale solar\, this film challenges assumptions and discovers common ground in an urgency to address our changing climate. Following the screening\, we’ll host a live Q&A with the filmmakers. \n​We’ll also screen two immersive 360° films made right here in Oregon: \n​Minam River Wildlife takes you inside Oregon’s newly expanded Minam River Wildlife Area\, exploring how conservation partners protected nearly 17\,000 acres of critical habitat through collaborative stewardship. \n​Bark in VR gives you a first-person look at what it’s like to volunteer on the ground protecting Mt. Hood National Forest. \n​About NW Documentary-\nNW Documentary is a Portland-based arts nonprofit that teaches and supports documentary filmmaking and nonfiction storytelling through workshops\, youth programs\, and a supportive community space.

SUMMARY:Intro To The Circular Economy & Collaborative Discussion On Waste Solutions in the Park
DESCRIPTION:Part of PNW Climate Week – Have you ever heard of the Circular Economy? It is made up on the foundational principles of creating zero waste. In a world where almost everything is considered tossable this type of mission driven exercise is highly valuable to invoke change. Please join us in fostering community connections through a thought provoking discussion on how to break our societal norms to create zero waste! \n​For this event we will start off with a short segment on what the circular economy is and some foundational principles from there we be working as a collective (or in breakouts if the group is really large) the moderator will be providing scenarios or products from all areas of life that generate waste and we will discuss possible solutions to eliminate waste throughout the pre and post consumer contact. This is meant to be a fun and engaging exercise so please bring your thinking cap! \n​The moderator is hoping to create a Local Chapter for Circular Economists and this event is helping to gage community interest. Even if you cannot attend but are interested in the Local Chapter please reach out to the host directly on LinkedIn! \n​The event will be at a park so if it is raining the event will be canceled. We may also be sitting in the grass potentially so please bring blankets\, camping chairs\, snacks\, water\, hats and whatever else you may need to feel comfortable.
