Business and Climate Gubernatorial Series

As a business leader in Oregon, you know that climate change presents a critical strategic concern for Oregon businesses. The climate crisis poses a mounting threat to the communities we serve and operate in. At the same time, solutions to climate change open up new opportunities for job growth and innovation, products and services, business models, and public-private partnerships.

This is the decisive decade for climate action. Our next Governor will play a critical role in determining whether Oregon emerges as a leader in addressing the climate crisis and positioning our state for long-term success. After last month’s informative discussion with Tina Kotek, our series continues in April with Tobias Read.

BBPDX is partnering with Oregon Business for Climate and other organizations on this series of conversations with leading candidates so we can learn more about how they plan to tackle these challenges. Other candidates for Governor who are also invited to this series of Business and Climate briefings: Bridget Barton, Christine Drazan, Betsy Johnson, Bud Pierce, and Stan Pulliam.
