Join Willamette Riverkeeper for a paddle out to the Critical Energy Infrastructure hub to learn more about one of the major environmental issues facing our city. Located along the Willamette River in northwest Portland, the CEI Hub is a six-mile stretch of industrial land used for the storage of 90% of all liquid fuels used throughout the state of Oregon. We'll discuss the history of this site, the risks that it poses, and different future pathways to a safer Portland.

This event is hosted in partnership with Portland State University and paddle participants will take part in a Photovoice project run by a PSU grad student, Lillian Weaver. Lillian is in the Earth, Environment, and Society program and is studying the CEI hub. Photovoice is a visual research method that uses photography and group discussions to learn more about a topic. For more details about the event, click the registration link below!
