We live in a small community just outside of Portland, Oregon. Currently, the community is fighting a proposed Composting and BioMass Energy Facility looking to locate on 139 acres of prime farm / timber property just four miles further on down the road from us. While we are all strong supporters of recycling and being "green", this is just the wrong site for the proposed industrial facility. As part of our contribution towards this effort, we provided banners which are hung throughout the area to spread the word about what is happening. We have also built a website and update on a daily (and sometimes hourly!) basis to keep our neighbors informed of public hearings, local fund raisers and ways they can support the effort.
