January 29th Action in San Jose for Medicine Lake
Protest to Evict Calpine- Company That Wants to Build Power Plant in Wilderness
On Monday, January 29th, Pit River Indian Tribe members and Indigenous and environmental justice supporters delivered an eviction notice to Calpine Corporation in downtown San Jose, demanding they drop their decades-long attempt to build polluting power plants in the Medicine Lake Highlands near Mount Shasta. Tribal members and supporters vowed to nonviolently defend Medicine Lake from any attempts to build power plants at this area that is profoundly sacred to area Native peoples.

The Seventh Generation Fund for Indian Development reports that "Calpine Energy Corporation has been developing a proposed Geothermal thermal power production plant near Medicine Lake in Northern California against the wishes of local tribal members. Calpine, who last year declared bankruptcy, recently lost their lease extension in a recent 9th Circuit Court of Appeals decision. Let's let them know it's a good time to "Give it Up and Get Out" of the Medicine Lake Highlands."
