75% of humanity lives in water-insecure countries. Half our major lakes are shrinking. 70% of our aquifers are in decline. We've lost 30% of our glaciers since 1970.

The UN says we've damaged our water systems ""beyond realistic prospects of full recovery."" And Colorado? We're writing checks our water systems can't cash. Billions of gallons of water consumed by fracking each year, and thousands of toxic oil spills threatening what's left.

The planet is overdrawn. We're bankrupting our children's future.
It's time to stop. Sign the open letter to end fracking by 2030 (link in bio). 👆

Coloradans depend on clean, healthy water, and fracking puts it at risk. When billions of gallons are taken out of our water cycle, we all lose. Let’s protect what makes this place home by phasing out new oil and gas fracking. Share this post and sign the Open Letter of Support at safeandhealthyco.org

Today we pause. The longest night reminds us why we do this work; to protect the quiet beauty of moments like these, the wild places that restore us, and the future we’re building together.

As the light begins its return, we’re grateful for this community and the time you’ve taken to connect with nature and loved ones this season.

Rest well tonight. Tomorrow, we rise together. 🌲✨

Colorado has seen wildfire season grow hotter and longer, and scientists have attributed this directly to the pollution from oil and gas operations! Coloradoans pay to subsidize fracking, and to repair our communities after these wildfires. Sign the letter at safeandhealthyco.org today to tell our politicians that we do not want to approve any more fracking permits in our beautiful state!

BREAKING: ECMC Commissioners just voted to STAY the Sunlight-Long OGDP! 🙌

This win belongs to the Lowry Ranch community who refused to back down. Proud to stand with STAR and the environmental coalition that supported them every step of the way.

The fight isn't over, but we're stronger when we stand side by side. Together we rise. ✊

It's Colorado Gives Day!

We’re powered by people who are directly impacted. Some of us have had drilling operations spring up literally in our backyards. Others moved here hoping to live the Colorado dream, only to find a massive industrial site planned for the lot across the street. Collectively, we are a team of outdoor lovers across the state who are watching climate impacts hit the places they cherish.
