Spokane will get the chance to hear about a northwest David versus Goliath story when tomorrow night at REI from 7-9pm, you can check out a film screening and discussion on the controversy surrounding the proposed Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) terminals on the Columbia River. The film is titled “Crossroads On the Columbia,” about “the passion and power of grass roots activism set against the backdrop of the beauty, heritage and history of the Columbia Pacific Region make this a compelling story of America at the crossroads of fossil fuel dependence, renewable energy and decisions over who controls our air, water and economy.” Dan Serres, Conservation Directory of the Columbia Riverkeeper, will talk about the negative impact of the terminals---from importing millions of tons of new fossil fuels, clear cutting forests, and threatening endangered species---near Astoria, Oregon. In addition, you’ll learn about “No LNG movement”--- a coalition that has pushed for community rights and a clean energy future in the northwest.
