Thanks to public pressure, there's a new opportunity for the people of Washington State to stand in the way of what would be the nation's largest crude oil terminal.

Tough legislative sessions in Washington and Oregon are over. But we, together with an inspiring coalition, are just getting started.

As new terminal proposals threaten to increase rail transport of coal, Bakken shale and tar sands oil across Washington State, Spokane finds itself at a dangerous choke point.

United Airlines buys stake in biofuels firm; China, Brazil, and Korea announce climate pledges; micro-grid improves electric service for California desert town; and more news of the week in clean energy solutions. 

It's been two years since the lethal Lac-Mégantic oil train catastrophe that killed 47 people. With oil-by-rail traffic hugely expanding through our own region—dozens of mile-long oil trains every day—future accidents would seem to be a certainty. This can't remain business as usual.
