Colorado should join California, Washington and New York in the Climate Alliance and commit to the Paris agreement. Colorado is already heavily impacted by Climate change, with rising temperatures, the increase in forest fires and the depletion of our water resources. Our state should be at the forefront, leading the country in promoting clean energy, environmental protection practices and investing in new jobs​. Let's demand a sustainable future for us and our children.
Why is this important?
Colorado is home to incommensurable natural treasures. Our state thrives on its outdoors. It is part of its identity. And yet our legislators are still committed to an obsolete industry, oil and gas, that puts everybody in Colorado and the entire planet in danger. Our beautiful rivers, mountains and forest should be an absolute priority. Our children deserve to inherit a world full of animals, water, clean blue skies and trees.
