Post Carbon Oregon receives grant from Lazar Foundation
December 10th, 2009The Lazar Foundation has given a $1,000 grant to Post Carbon Oregon, saying it “is proud to support your work”.
The Lazar Foundation funds innovative and strategic projects that protect the environment in the Pacific Northwest: Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington.
We do this blog and our newsletter because we believe it is crucial for people to be thinking about what to do to meet the awesome challenges of our time. Peak oil is a threat to civilization as we know it; global warming is a threat not only to our local environment, but to the stability of Earth’s ecosystems upon which all life – including human life – depends. But the funding to do this work has proved to be extremely sparse. So we’ve been doing it on a very short and thin shoestring.
All of us at Goal One Institute are profoundly grateful to The Lazar Foundation for their financial support – and especially for their recognition of the importance of our work.
