Rumbles are always free!

• Since 2022, Rumble On The River has presented 26 community forums in neighborhoods throughout
Portland and at the Public Interest Environmental Law Conference, U of O.
• Rumbles bring together expert voices to discuss a range of environmental and social topics. These
have included the Columbia & Willamette River ecosystems, transportation, false climate solutions,
urban forestry, shade equity, risk-bonding, salmon restoration, the Portland Clean Energy Community
Benefits Fund and the Western Hemisphere’s most toxic site - Hanford.
• A recurring Rumble focus has been the Critical Energy Infrastructure (CEI) Hub and the potential
hazards of having 90% of Oregon’s fuel and a dangerous mix of chemicals stored within Portland’s city
limits on a riverside seismic liquefaction zone.
