| Idling in Oregon Oregon has one of the most diverse landscapes of any state in the U.S. It is well known for its tall, dense forests; its accessible and scenic Pacific coastline; and its rugged, glaciated Cascade volcanoes. Other areas include semiarid scrublands, prairies, and deserts that cover approximately half the state in eastern and north-central Oregon. |
With the soil being the source of a wealth of agricultural products and the constant increase of the state's population, the number of vehicles and hence the idling problem are also growing. |
