Oh hey! Yours truly was interviewed for this @RMPBS story on Suncor and the #EnvironmentalJustice issues that surround this terribly polluting facility.

Check it out!

Rocky Mountain PBS @rmpbs did a fantastic news piece on Suncor this week that you won't want to miss.

After a long night, Denver city council just voted 9-3 to eliminate parking requirements for all uses citywide! 👏

The world is forgetting about the people of Sudan.

Half of the country’s population needs lifesaving assistance.

But they need more than humanitarian support.

They need an end to the bloodshed.

They need peace.

The only path out of this horror is a political solution.

Today @jaredpolis signed HB1007 to end discriminatory occupancy limits in housing. This allows people to live with whomever they choose & to live closer to work/needs - a climate & affordability win.
Thanks to sponsors @MannyRutinel, @javier_mabrey, @TonyExum & @SenadoraJulie!

The so-called "pro-life" movement isn't just trying to dictate when people can have babies.

With the push to outlaw IVF, they're trying to be the decision maker in how people can have babies.

This agenda isn't about life, it's about control.

Just an incredible showing of politicians, advocates, impacted community members and allies at today's press conference on the introduction of three bills combatting our chronic ozone problem in Colorado.

All people deserve to breathe #CleanAir!

Climate-immune energy source? In a hurricane, it's safer not being next to a nuclear reactor & waste storage & just repeating that it's safe won't make it so, especially if they haven't even built one yet. What is it called when someone tries to sell you a nonexistent product?

Hey Denver, Aurora, Commerce City residents — here's a chance to join your neighbors for a Town Hall and learn about #EnvironmentalJustice, Suncor, and Fracking pollution.

Gathering at the Eagle Point Rec. Center in Commerce City on January 26th, 6-7pm.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

To those who opposed a clear reference to phase out of fossil fuels during the #COP28 Climate Conference, I want to say:

Whether you like it or not, fossil fuel phase out is inevitable. Let’s hope it doesn’t come too late.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Plastics are fueling the climate crisis.

By 2040, up to 19% of global greenhouse gas emissions will stem from plastics.

To meet the goal of 1.5° global temperature rise & to #BeatPlasticPollution, we need a plastics treaty that reduces plastic production.

[Dr. Brent Goodlet @BrentGoodlet]

@GregWertsch @hahnn12 @AndyKnny FYI the reason I can’t afford a home working full time in this town is not because of property taxes.

It’s because we have a system of haves vs. have-nots, where those who got in first are are getting richer every year, while those who come after are getting left further behind.

“Our job, as a board, is to protect human and environmental health, and that is what we are doing while still allowing for oil and gas operations,” Campbell-Swanson said.
Proud of this protective & prudent program that goes beyond state regulations. https://t.co/qEOX9yhHq3

[Dr. Brent Goodlet @BrentGoodlet]

Honest question.

Why are property taxes levied on homeowners who saw a 40% growth in the value of their home so terrible?

Mind you you’re taking to a renter who struggles to pay rent, who didn’t see a 40% growth in his most valuable asset, with student loans not forgiven.

Black Parents United Foundation invites you to it’s BREATHE Policy gathering this Sunday, Oct. 8th, 12–2pm, at 1521 Dayton St. in Aurora.

[Colorado Moms @CleanAirMoms_CO]

1/ We can’t reduce #methane emissions if we don’t actually measure them. TAKE ACTION and tell @CDPHE #APCD to develop a strong Protocol for oil and gas operators to achieve the required emissions reductions by speaking at the 10/16 public comment session. #GHGs #COpols

[Dr. Brent Goodlet @BrentGoodlet]

Must watch.

So proud to work with such amazing and powerful mamas, fighting for #CleanAir for Colorado families.

Easily the most powerful and heartfelt party presentation of the entire ill-fated GEMM2 rulemaking.

Are any in the media covering this? Please share!

How many more records do we need to break before we #ActOnClimate

Planning on seeing Oppenheimer this weekend? Well, I have an important update on the story the movie didn’t tell.

The film showed a remote test site in the New Mexico desert. An isolated area 210 miles south of Los Alamos, according to government accounts.

Not quite. 🧵
