Former Portland landfill becomes solar farm and wildlife habitat
Original: Local nonprofits turn former Portland landfill into solar array and wildlife habitat
Local nonprofits in Portland have converted a closed landfill site into a solar array while restoring part of the land as wildlife habitat. The project turns otherwise unusable brownfield land into clean energy generation and green space, and the reuse of landfills for solar and habitat projects is drawing interest in other cities looking at similar conversions.
Why now: It is a feel-good local story combining renewable energy and environmental restoration, topics drawing wide public attention.
