Can someone with even a whit of scientific knowledge explain how buying a piece of well-managed ground a state away somehow ameliorates the carbon output from within Eugene’s boundaries?
It is financial flimflam at its finest. In medieval times such things were called indulgences. Sorry, Eugene, but to paraphrase a famous saying, “Your indulgences smell the same as everybody else’s.”
Please don’t emulate big businesses. Take care of your pollution the right way by working to truly reduce it at home.

Help keep truly independent
local news alive!
As the year wraps up, we’re reminded — again — that independent local news doesn’t just magically appear. It exists because this community insists on having a watchdog, a megaphone and occasionally a thorn in someone’s side.
Over the past two years, you helped us regroup and get back to doing what we do best: reporting with heart, backbone, and zero corporate nonsense.
If you want to keep Eugene Weekly free and fearless… this is the moment.
