Description

Students in Eugene, Ore., marched out of school in March 2023 to support home electrification as a climate action. Eugene voters will now decide whether to create a climate fund that could pay, among others, for home electrification and other energy efficiency projects in buildings.

Eugene voters will get to decide in November whether to create a climate fund financed by a tax on some of the country’s largest retailers.
