Thanks to @GovofCO and @WillToor for their continued climate leadership. I hope it inspires other states to keep on the path of #climateprogress!

Channeling my election angst into turning out the vote for @YadiraCaraveo in CD 8, one of the most competitive US House races in the country. When we fight (& GOTV), we win!

Be sure to say hey if you're at ClimateCon Boulder today, where speakers including Eco-Cycle's Executive Director Zan Jones discussed how Zero Waste policies are an important tool in addressing climate change & creating more circular food and organic waste systems.

The CO State Senate has approved House amendments to SB24-150 to end state funding for harmful plastics-to-fuel projects, discouraging them from coming to our state! The final step is for Gov. Polis to sign the bill into law. Thank you to the bill sponsors & coalition of helpers!

In my view, the key CPAC story isn’t that right-wing influencer Jack Posebiec said, “Welcome to the end of democracy. We are here to overthrow it completely.”
The story is how many Republican lawmakers are absolutely silent about it.
May I suggest the media ask every Congressional member who speaks at CPAC, and every Republican presidential candidate for that matter, the following three questions:
1) Do you reject Jack Posebiec’s comments?
2) Do you support democracy?
3) Do you respect the separation of church and state?
And don't stop asking until you get answers.
I believe journalists have a duty to uncover just how deep the threat to American democracy runs.
It’s the answers that should frighten us. Never the questions.

Zero Waste isn’t just about conserving & reusing the Earth’s finite resources—it impacts air & water quality, energy use, wildlife habitat, economic growth, social justice & climate change! This #GivingTuesday, help us move CO closer to Zero Waste at ecocycle.org/donate!

In the US, we generate 23% more waste in Dec than in other months. Celebrate the season sustainably with Eco-Cycle's Zero Waste Holiday Guide, including NEW tips for finding alternatives to traditional gift wrapping paper, reduce food waste, and more at ecocycle.org/holiday-guide!
With the adoption of recent policies, Colorado is poised to become a national Zero Waste leader in the next 5 years!
On the 2nd day of #ColoradoRecyclesWeek, Eco-Cycle and @copirg just dropped our 7th annual State of Recycling and Composting in Colorado Report that examines the progress made by the state & Colorado communities in recycling, composting, reducing, reusing: ecocycle.org/sorc

Just wrapped the release of @copirg @ecocycle 7th annual state of #Recycling & #Composting report. While our recycle rate remains stubbornly low (16%) recent state/local action should vault us to be a leader in #Zerowaste in the next 5 years. pirg.org/colorado/foundation…
My new favorite #Boulder coffee shop -Bitty and Beau’s (1468 Pearl)- go check it out! Their baristas are very happy & competent developmentally challenged individuals. Which means you get to drink great coffee AND support a great cause! #aHumanRightsMovementDisguisedAsaCoffeeShop
Love these, @bouldercolorado!! Will make it much more safe and inviting to bike to work. And colorful too!
New protected bikes lanes and art alert! These innovative concrete “tall curbs” are the first of their kind in the U.S. and popular in other North American cities. Try them out on Baseline Road and tell us your thoughts: ➡️ bldr.fyi/brtsp
