WEDNESDAY JAN 16TH. 6 pm, NEVERMINED PALE ALE RELEASE PARTY
Please join us for a non-toxic release into the environment: Nevermined Pale Ale Roots is supporting the work of Portland-based Center for Environmental Equity (CEE) by hosting a release party for Nevermined Pale Ale on Wednesday, January 16, at 6pm. Larry and John Tuttle will give a small lecture and slide show presentation on CEE and it’s goals.
CEE a Portland-based non-profit, successfully petitioned the EPA to secure funding and to clean up the abandoned Formosa Silver Butte Mine. Formosa Silver Butte has released millions of gallons of heavy-metal laden, acid-mine drainage into the Umpqua River watershed. Heavy-Metals found in most mine run-offs have been linked to all kinds of cancers and other diseases.
Roots understands the need to protect our watersheds and guarantee clean water for future generations. For this reason, Roots will donate 10% percent of Nevermined Pale Ale sales to CEE. CEE is currently targeting two other abandoned mines in Oregon for cleanup. For more information come to the release party on Wednesday, Jan 16th, at 6pm, or visit nevermined.org .
