SUMMARY:Southern Oregon Wildfire Risk: The Climate Connection
DESCRIPTION:Fire and smoke have become an annual source of concern for Oregonians\, especially for those of us living in the Southwest. As wildfire trends become increasingly obvious\, questions about their drivers become more urgent. Yet\, many factors affect wildfire behavior and impact: forest management\, disruptions to fire’s natural role\, patterns of development\, and\, importantly\, changes to the climate. 
What do we know about how wildfires are changing\, the causes\, and options for climate adaptation? 

Dr. Chris Adlam\, Southwest Regional Fire Specialist with the Oregon State University Extension Service\, Southern Oregon Research and Extension Center\, will be the featured speaker at the August Southern Oregon Climate Action Now (SOCAN) monthly general meeting. Adlam will discuss how climate is influencing fire risk in the region\, what climate projections portend for our future\, and what steps we can take to minimize the risk. There is no charge for attending SOCAN events.

SUMMARY:Film: "On Paper Wings"
DESCRIPTION:In the spring of 1945\, a Japanese balloon bomb claimed the lives of the only people killed on the continental U.S. as the result of enemy action during WWII. Forty years later\, the decision to fold a thousand paper cranes would unite the Japanese and American civilians who were involved in and affected by this incident. Join us for a film screening of On Paper Wings\, which tells the story of four Japanese women who worked on balloon bombs\, the families of those killed in the U.S.\, and the man whose actions brought them all together 40 years after WWII. \nThe film is being shown in Calvin Hall at the First Presbyterian Church in Ashland at the corner of Walker & Siskiyou.

SUMMARY:How Climate Science Divides Us
\, How to Build Consensus
DESCRIPTION:An abundance of scientific evidence is readily available confirming the reality of human-induced global warming and its climate consequences – and the causes. There is also a wealth of evidence regarding what is needed to divert the current climate trajectory which threatens life on the planet as we know it. Given this evidence\, climate scientists and activists are frustrated and disappointed by the limited success of climate mitigation policies. \nDr Rob Winthrop\, a member of the Department of Anthropology at the University of Maryland\, has reflected on this conundrum and will discuss his thinking on the reasons for this failure. Dr. Winthrop’s presentation is the focus of the July Southern Oregon Climate Action Now free monthly public general meetings. \nWinthrop argues that climate change is not an environmental problem. It is a social problem with profound environmental consequences. While acknowledging the soundness of climate science\, he questions how the science has been used to shape policies around highly technical objectives (such as “net zero” emissions) that lack social salience and fail to build consensus. He suggests that we should encourage social mobilization for a climate-positive future around shared goals\, not beliefs (including a belief in human-caused climate change). Thus\, he thinks that rather than focusing primarily on reducing greenhouse gas emissions\, we should pursue climate action as a co-benefit of other socially desired goals\, such as energy efficiency and self-reliance.

SUMMARY:Beekman Bank Museum Open for Summer
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to “Step Behind the Counter” of the oldest financial institution in the Pacific Northwest — Jacksonville’s 1863 Beekman Bank Museum — when Historic Jacksonville\, Inc. opens the museum for summer tours. \nEstablished as a “gold dust” office in 1856\, it was the first “bank” north of San Francisco. Scheduled 2025 “banking hours” are 11am to 3 pm\, Saturdays and Sundays\, from May 24 through August 31. \nGuests can interact with costumed docents sharing stories of late 19th Century banking practices\, gold shipping\, and handshake deals; step behind the counter and peer in drawers containing old checks\, stage schedules\, and paperwork; and enter the vault that stored millions in gold!\nVisitors can spend as much or as little time as they like — although we suggest they allow at least 30 minutes. Tours are FREE\, but donations are encouraged since all monies go towards the preservation and maintenance of this historic legacy. \nSee more about the museum or call 541-245-3650.

SUMMARY:Rally! Take Back Congress’s Constitutional Authority to Declare War
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, June 21\, after 9 days of war between Israel and Iran\, President Trump bombed three nuclear sites in Iran\, effectively entering the US as a party to the war. \nTrump’s strikes violated international law and destroyed the fragile trust that had been built between the U.S. and Iran — and made diplomacy harder\, not easier. As with the Iraq War\, these strikes are based on faulty intelligence and fear-mongering. Trump started this war — now Congress must stop it before more lives are lost. \nAmericans don’t want this war. Lawmakers have a choice to make: will they side with the people they represent\, or align with a warmongering minority intent on dragging us into disaster? \nThat is why Peace House is calling on Representative Cliff Bentz to uphold the Constitution and support House Concurrent Resolution 38. The resolution condemns President Trump’s violation of the U.S. Constitution and the War Powers Act of 1973\, and requires that any hostilities with Iran be explicitly authorized by a declaration of war. \nWe’ll gather at Vogel Plaza\, then we’ll proceed to field office of U.S. Representative Cliff Bentz at 14 N. Central Ave.\, Medford\, around 10:15 a.m. \nBring signs! No War With Iran\, No Illegal Wars\, Yes to HCR 38

SUMMARY:A Public Art Unveiling honoring Lorraine Hansberry and Black Lives
DESCRIPTION:A landmark cultural moment in Ashland: the unveiling of one of the city’s first Playwright’s Plaques\, honoring legendary playwright Lorraine Hansberry and commemorating Black lives lost to racial injustice — including local youth Aidan Ellison\, is timed just after Juneteenth. \nThis public ceremony marks a significant step in Ashland’s effort to uplift voices of social justice and Black artistry through lasting\, visible art. The plaque — featuring original artwork by Micah BlackLight and bronze casting by local artist Jack Langford — will be permanently installed as a touchstone for reflection and dialogue. \nThis is a story of community-led action\, collaboration between artists\, students\, and local organizations\, and a rare project funded by the city’s public arts budget. Supporting organizations include Ashland’s Social Equity & Racial Justice Advisory Committee\, Public Arts Advisory Committee\, and Ashland Playwrights Walk\, sponsors — Oregon Shakespeare Festival\, Southern Oregon University\, the Ashland Chamber of Commerce & the City of Ashland. \nAbout the Playwright’s Plaques:\nThe Playwright’s Plaques are a series of bronze artworks installed throughout Ashland to celebrate the city’s rich theater culture. Initiated by community members and supported by local institutions\, the project aims to honor playwrights and significant cultural figures. Each plaque features a quote from the honoree\, serving as a lasting tribute to their contributions to the arts and society. Ashland News \nAbout the Public Arts Advisory Committee:\nThe Public Arts Advisory Committee (PAAC) is a volunteer group appointed by the Ashland City Council to advise on matters related to public art in Ashland. The committee works to enhance the city’s cultural landscape through the promotion and support of public art initiatives. The PAAC recommends the use of funding (through a small percentage of the Transient Occupancy Taxes) to the city council for approval. City of Ashland
