IN THE FACE OF EXTINCTION, WE SAY REBELLION!
THIS IS A CLIMATE EMERGENCY.
Extinction Rebellion in Portland, Oregon – XRPDX – is a local chapter in the international Extinction Rebellion movement and one of 60 groups in XR US.
XRPDX organizes people in the Portland, Oregon Metro area:
- By taking action (online and in person) to resist fossil fuel infrastructure, educate the broader public about the climate emergency, and support our allies in social justice struggles
- By spreading the word: a weekly newsletter; a website and blog; and social media (Facebook and Instagram)
We are building a supportive activist culture of appreciation and skill-sharing. We share a love of the natural world and a vision of a more just and equitable world.
Upcoming Actions
Paddle Zenith Out of Portland
On Sunday, June 11, join a land and water action at Cathedral Park in Portland to demonstrate our community’s resistance to harmful and dangerous fossil fuels. It's time to end the era of fossil fuels! Portland is joining organizations and activists across the country to mobilize against local and national fossil fuel development. Join XR, 350pdx, Mosquito Fleet, and dozens of local groups on June 11th to rally against Zenith and the Critical Energy Infrastructure (CEI) Hub and call out President Biden for breaking his climate policies. We'll start with a kayaktavism training in the morning, then hop in our kayaks and hit the river to stand up to Zenith! Not up for kayaking? We’ve got you covered! We’ll have a few walk-on party boats and ways to participate on land, including making some art for the cause.
