Just keeping up with the Trump administration’s all out war against our environment is exhausting. Fortunately, we in the northwest are blessed with incredible activists, organizers, and more relevant to today, environmental attorneys to help us understand the attacks so we can fight back effectively.
One of the best of those attorneys is Brenna Bell, formerly of 350pdx and now with the Crag Law Center. This episode features a recent presentation Brenna gave along with Lauren Anderson of Oregon Wild and Grace Brahler from Cascadia Wildlands.
They covered the seismic changes happening via the Executive Branch, including to the National Environmental Policy Act, how the definition of “harm” under the Endangered Species Act has changed to dramatically limit protections for species, and a lot more.
