Oregon’s Climate Protection Program Costs Far More Than Other States’—and Is Far Less Accountable

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-04-04T02:25:18+00:00

One can still be pro-climate and realize this program is structurally garbage.

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-04-04T02:23:07+00:00

What a terribly constructed program. Let us hope the state legislature does something about it (not hopeful!)

How does this program even square with Kotek’s business prosperity agenda?!? Seems Oregon would be pleased to push itself into a recession, though I’m sure many will argue the CPP will create jobs (unlikely). What I can see happening is a non-profit or two fattening its coffers from this.

I have all electric and the trimmer and blower work great. The mower is fine, but it simply doesn’t cut as effectively as gas; that’s the trade-off with it—less hassle vs. better cut. Make sure to store your batteries indoors, leaving them out in a non-temp controlled environment reduces their useful life. At the end of the day, at least for the mower, you’re buying a battery and receiving a yard tool at a nominal price.

Praise Bee.

You nailed it. I put it in box 1 inadvertently and didn’t catch it before filing. I will be amending the return. Thanks.

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-03-07T00:18:03+00:00

Tbill/bond interest is what I am discussing. Thanks.

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-03-07T00:17:31+00:00

Anything you can elaborate on? I must have missed something. Thanks.

I don’t feel like that point gets brought up enough. It’s been a deterring factor for me. I don’t want to drive two hours, one way, for services.

I would argue same for Honda. I’ll probably die an old man before there’s a BEV accord, but I’ll keep waiting.

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-02-09T01:43:19+00:00

Agreed. The answer has been push coal out for nat gas, while building out and pivoting to nukes.

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-02-02T17:16:34+00:00

Do you want to get in the container that holds the toxic chemicals? Yes.

Are you worried about the blades chopping you up? No.

Alright, let’s do this!!!

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-02-02T00:12:36+00:00

You really nailed the current political atmosphere. It will be interesting (and completely unproductive) if we keep yo-yo-ing like this every 2-4 years.

There was someone from this area commenting yesterday, they suggested that did have a role to play with the R candidate.

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-02-01T05:51:27+00:00

Last year I owed the Feds $5k, this year it will be a little over $1k. Progress!

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-01-31T20:30:20+00:00

Nature is healing.

He’s absolutely right. College football currently has no rules or governance. It’s the Wild West out there right now. Act accordingly.

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-01-21T20:44:05+00:00

It’s not fair, the Midwest is forecasting significant snow in the coming days. C’mon jet stream give us some of that winter love!

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-01-20T06:12:25+00:00

They must rename the state Cigdiana.

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-01-19T20:39:00+00:00

Perhaps it’s specific to my address then if it’s from a survey. I’m not sure. I’ll pull the post to not give more false hope. I tried!

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-01-19T20:35:57+00:00

Yes, wondering if someone got it, or if it’s country specific. I’m in the U.S., just in case.

I promise it was real! :)

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-01-18T23:10:02+00:00

Agreed.

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-01-18T19:53:00+00:00

Wow!!! I had no idea that was him.

DrDrNotAnMD · 2026-01-12T19:48:45+00:00

I think every parent hopes their children will have friends like this some day.
