Dear Friend,

 

As we near the end of our second full year as an organization, we are sharing some highlights from the past year and a look at what’s to come for Breach in 2023. 

 

First, we want to thank you for following along with our work, for supporting us and partnering with us in vital campaigns that work to dismantle the fossil fuel industry and promote climate justice. We are a small organization and support from people like you allows us to fulfill our bold mission.

Going into the new year, we're gearing up for continued success in the fight for climate justice. Your contribution will help us accomplish even more in 2023.

This year, we… 

  • researched and publicized NW Natural’s dangerous and deceptive advertising practices and the harmful impacts of cooking with gas ⚠️

  • supported young people in their fight against “Climate Villains” 🦹🏻‍♂️

  • launched our first podcast episode on movement lawyering, produced by our Communications Intern, Anya Moore🎙

  • continued to support Memphis Community Against Pollution in their vital fights against the fossil fuel industry ✊

  • hired Josie Moberg as Breach’s new Climate Justice Movement Legal Fellow 🎉

  • supported community organizing behind the City of Portland’s initial denial of a key permit for the Zenith oil storage facility; currently mobilizing community energy to demand a reversal of a  subsequent, unilateral decision with no public involvement to approve new authorizations that allow five more years of oil trains 😡

  • supported organizations in Portland to campaign for adding environmental rights, environmental justice, and a fossil fuel phase out into the Portland City Charter 📃

  • worked with our Fossil Free Eugene coalition partners to advance electrification policy in Eugene, which is now poised to be the first city in the state of Oregon to require that new residential buildings are 100% electric ⚡️

  • supported climate fragile workers in the Mountain West through work with our union, Communications Workers of America 🏔

  • partnered with Save Our wild Salmon to launch a campaign showcasing the importance of modernizing the Columbia River Treaty 🐟

  • worked with our Board of Directors to develop a progressive pro-worker union contract that will be finalized in the coming months 🤝

We are happy to have you as a partner in this important work and look forward to more wins and continued success in the new year. Thank you for your support.

In solidarity, 

The Breach Team
