We need HB 2020
To the Editor:
A beautiful tribute to
Mayor Dan Pokorney by
Dick Mason. He captured
the essence of the man. I
never have known a kinder
good man with such deep
faith. I used Mayor Dan as
my measuring stick, but I
could never match his in-
tellect and good humor. I
have always thought that
only in America could a
blue-collar mill worker
become the mayor of a
university city.
Dan and I often chided
each other on who was
To the Editor:
Arguments by opponents
of HB 2020 focus on claims
that it would cost their fami-
ly or their business substan-
tially. It is clear that these
result from a campaign
developed by corporate in-
terests to frighten Orego-
nians for the sole purpose of
protecting their short-term

last time I saw him at Joe
Beans he asked, “Written
your book?” No, I haven’t,
but I’m working on it,
Dan. I’m working on it.
Our community was so
blessed to have this man
amongst us.

assume that the only costs
are a result of taking action
to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions. What they never
seem to ask is: What is the
cost of inaction?
If we fail to address
greenhouse gas emissions,
and simply allow current
trends to continue, we will
face the daunting pros-
pect of climate disruption
caused by temperatures 8
degrees Fahrenheit warm-
er than today. The result
of this would likely be the
elimination of many critical
tree species from the state,
destroying our forests, and
challenges to agricultural
production across the state
that our farmers and ranch-
ers almost certainly could
not tolerate.
A 2016 study of the on-
going economic impact of
global warming allowed a
conservative estimate of the
cost of climate change by
mid-century to each and ev-
ery Oregonian as probably
exceeding $3,000 annually.
Surely, we should do ev-
erything possible to avoid
this disastrous outcome.
HB 2020 is an essential
