We are excited to introduce Johnathan Zepda, our new Finance Coordinator! 🎉 Johnathan, or if you fancy JZ, is a first-generation Mexican-American born and raised in the Central Valley of California. Portland has been home for the past 3 years. His experience ranges from community organizing, advocacy, and project management within nonprofits and government entities. He is motivated to support movements and efforts that seek to dismantle barriers and systems that prevent individuals and communities from accessing resources and services, and that limit the quality of life. During his free time Johnathan enjoys spending as much time outside amongst the trees and bodies of water. When not outside, you can find him doing yoga, playing video games, drawing, reading, riding his bike, playing tennis, running, or spending time with friends and family.

As a result of collective action from Community Energy Project and other climate and justice organizations, NW Natural has agreed to reduce its proposed rate hike from 17% to 7%. This victory not only limits the utility's revenue rise but also expands bill discount programs for vulnerable households. Community Energy Project is dedicated to advocating for equitable energy solutions, helping to pave the way for a cleaner and more just energy future. The organizations involved in the partial settlement are the Coalition of Communities of Color, Climate Solutions, Verde, Columbia Riverkeeper, Oregon Environmental Council, and Sierra Club; the groups are represented by Earthjustice and the Green Energy Institute at Lewis & Clark Law School. Other parties to the settlement include NW Natural, the PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION, STATE OF OREGON, Oregon Citizens' Utility Board and the ALLIANCE OF WESTERN ENERGY CONSUMERS. https://lnkd.in/g58XT4zf #energy #environmentaljustice #NWNaturalRateCase #gas #cleanenergy #environment #climate #PortlandOR
