We have teamed up with student groups to expose banks that fund mountaintop removal coal mining. Since our founding, we have been instrumental in the battle to keep LNG out of Mount Hood. The Portland chapter of Rising Tide was founded in 2011. Portland Rising Tide combines long-term strategic campaigning with educational events and direct action to raise awareness and build capacity in our community to stop the plunge into climate chaos. Rising Tide is an international, all-volunteer, grassroots network of groups and individuals who organize locally, promote community-based solutions to the climate crisis and take direct action to confront the root causes of climate change.
We know that whatever we achieve in our local struggles is amplified by the energy of the growing global movement for climate justice.
The international Rising Tide network now spans four continents. The systems that are destroying the planet are systems rooted in oppression combating climate change is therefore not just a matter of carbon emissions, but of confronting the institutions that destroy communities, cultures and the Earth. Rising Tide’s tactics are diverse and creative, taking a bottom-up approach to connecting the dots between colonialism, corporate power, climate disruption, social justice, and biocentrism. together and we’ll happily come talk to you about direct action for hours.Ĭontact us to inquire more or schedule a training. Get your friends/family/coworkers/fellow students/church group/chess club/step squad etc. We source FRESH fish, chicken, and beef and we hand-cut daily.If you’re wanting to do more direct action but don’t really want to spend lots of time organizing, we offer Non-violent Direct Action trainings to groups of people who already have some level of trust and affinity with each other.
