Transportation produces one-third of Oregon’s climate-changing greenhouse gases. Solving transportation problems is a priority for the Oregon Legislature, though greatly reducing emissions and congestion poses a major challenge. This event explores the role of business in building a congestion-busting, low-carbon, community-oriented transportation system. Governor Kulongoski presents his vision for integrating climate change and sustainability into Oregon’s transportation plans, and is joined by OR Rep. Arnie Roblan, WA Rep. David Upthegrove, and Ryan Deckert of Oregon Business Association.
