A2 THE DAILY ASTORIAN • TUESDAY, JANUARY 15, 2019 Washington greenhouse gas emissions jump in recent tally Associated Press SEATTLE — A new Washington Depart- ment of Ecology inven- tory shows greenhouse gas emissions spiked about 6.1 percent from 2012-2015, due in part to increas- ing fossil-fuel-generated electricity and a booming economy. The state sent more than 97 million metric tons of greenhouses gases into the atmosphere in 2015, compared with 90 mil- lion in 1990. The Seat- tle Times reported that although emissions are rising, the 2015 fi gure rep- resents progress from the year 2000, when emis- sions topped out at nearly 109 million metric tons. The report quantifi ed total emissions using U.S. Environmental Protection Man arraigned for assault The Daily Astorian Andrew Harry Culver Brown was arraigned in Cir- cuit Court on Monday for two counts of unlawful sex- ual penetration, one count of Agency data and informa- tion from the Washington state Department of Com- merce. Transportation was responsible for more than 42 percent of total emis- sions, according to the report. Washington legisla- tors a decade ago wrote into law a plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by the year 2020. The partial govern- ment shutdown is ele- vating the threat of wild- fi res in the West.

Typically, federal agen- cies hire and train fi re- fi ghters during the winter months so they are ready for wildfi re season when it hits in the summer. Pre- vention work, like setting prescribed fi re to remove dense undergrowth in forests, also begins in the winter and continues through spring. In a letter sent Mon- day to President Donald Trump, the senators wrote that it’s time to reopen government so forestry By BRENNA VISSER The Daily Astorian North Coast residents are invited to the North Coast Tourism Studio’s Commu- nity Kickoff event. The event is the culmina- professionals and fi re- fi ghters can continue for- est restoration work and training. “The failure to reopen the government puts peo- ples’ lives at risk by undermining their ability to respond to wildfi res and will only serve to delay critical forest restoration and safety projects,” they wrote. The shutdown is the longest in U.S. govern- ment history.
