About the Webinar

As part of a state-wide effort to reduce carbon emissions, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality is considering an expansion of the state's Clean Fuels Program (CFP).

Join us February 22nd for a Policy & Popcorn featuring speakers from the State Capitol to talk about the Governor’s proposal and the steps to bringing our state budget from ideas to reality.

Transporting goods by long-haul vehicles is a key element to healthy economies, but currently brings significant carbon emissions. Battery electric and hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles have emerged as solutions that promise to move these goods emissions free. Fossil fuel combustion, the long-term incumbent, is becoming cleaner and more efficient while these technologies emerge. The resolution to be debated today is which of these 3 technologies will dominate long-distance road freight.

For this session of Policy and Popcorn we have invited leaders from two of the selected AB 617 Communities to speak about their experiences working Community Emissions Reduction Program (CERP) under AB 617.
