Oregon, Washington, Idaho, British Columbia & Northern California. (or some composition thereof.)
As a citizen in one of those states I support the efforts of Cascadia.
- Cascadia Commons is an umbrella organization seeking to network with businesses, governments, and non-profit organizations bringing sustainability to the region. We seek to form a bioregional congress that supports life-place living, neighborhood revitalization projects, improving the capacity of local co-housing and cooperative businesses, developing a bioregional food network, support efforts encouraging communities and individuals to utilize innovative and sustainable technologies, restore watersheds, and create the Cascadian Commons, a community land trust that will ensure the survival of our great region and maintain Cascadia as one of the greatest places on Earth.
There are many web sites, and several names but all come back to the central thought that our region could be self sustaining and could potentially function as a model for other regions in the United States.
Here are a few links to various Cascadia(n) web sites:
- http://www.cascadiacommons.org
- http://republic-of-cascadia.tripod.com/
- http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Cascadian_Bioregionalism/
Check them out and if you live in one of those states support them as you can.
