The fact that NW Natural is quietly piping hydrogen into homes in Portland without addressing the concerns that led to the cancellation of a similar project in Eugene is deeply troubling. This project should be halted immediately. oregoncapitalchronicle.com/2024/08/27/n...

Has Oregon cracked the code? Extreme heat is dangerous. Cooling is a necessity, even in the PNW now. One of the hardest to reach groups of people with efficient cooling is renters. Our incentive program is so popular, it's going to run out of money-- AGAIN. #ORpolwww.opb.org/article/2024...

An additional $4 million will help the state relaunch the program to install energy-efficient heating and cooling devices in rental homes, but funds could run out quickly.
