Overview

World Premiere
When Texas-based oil conglomerate Tesoro-Savage proposed a $200 million rail-to-ship terminal at Washington’s Port of Vancouver in 2013, it was welcomed by residents of the blue-collar community. But Linda Garcia, galled by commissioners’ unanimous vote to build North America’s largest “dirty-energy” waystation while ignoring risks of accidents and oil spills, started organizing. In 2018, port commissioners canceled Tesoro’s lease; in 2019, Garcia received the Goldman Environmental Prize.
