Ozone-related deaths are projected to increase, but the strength of climate and air quality controls matters…a lot: Strong controls = 0.7% increase Weak controls = 94% increase How to avoid more ozone-related deaths? Alignment w/ the Paris Agreement. ysph.yale.edu/news-article/o…
Commentary: The onset of winter offers a seasonal reprieve from the Front Range’s poor air quality. But winter does mark an uptick in a pervasive source of highly localized air pollution: tailpipe emissions from idling vehicles. via @Sammy_Herdman coloradonewsline.com/2023/12/05/idl…
Commentary: Odor from the Coors plant in Golden is a form of pollution that the brewery should mitigate via @Sammy_Herdman coloradonewsline.com/2023/08/01/col…
This quote, from the @nytimes review of the OPPENHEIMER film: "He served as director of a clandestine weapons lab built in a near-desolate stretch of Los Alamos, in New Mexico"... It was inhabited by Hispanos. They were given less than 24 hr to leave. Their farms bulldozed. 1
A car is often not the most appropriate tool for the job. Excellent commercial by @BikeIsBestHQ
Happy 4th! Time to make the Front Range (with our persistent ozone pollution problem) independent of polluting refineries. Until then though, drive less & get rid of gas powered lawn equipment.

🧵 This is the definitive account of risks posed by the proposed #UintaBasinRailway. The series details railroad history in Colorado, how new oil trains threaten sensitive parts of the state, and climate change implications. Newsline presents "Down the Line," by @dcwoodruff
I wanted to share some of my thoughts on today's Supreme Court decision on affirmative action:
Today, I delivered a letter to @Google asking them to stop 13 Chromebook models expiring this summer signed by @EnvAm @CRAdvocacy @illinoispta, dozens of nonprofits, parents, teachers, + 10k @uspirg members. Chromebooks are not build to last... 🧵 #RightToRepair
New York has the chance to Stop Funding Climate Destruction--but it needs to act. Now is the time to pass The New York Tropical Deforestation-Free Procurement Act (S.4859/A.5682) before it's too late. Find out more at stopfundingclimatedestruction.com

Denver residents: curious why the Park Hill golf course keeps popping up on the ballot? Here's the DL and my opinion in @NewslineCO (TLDR: a compromise is necessary, residents don't want to see more land paved over and golf courses are a waste of space). coloradonewsline.com/2023/05/02/eno…
Proud be a Coloradan today!!
VICTORY! @GovofCO signs nation's 1st farmer #RightToRepair bill. Kinda crazy we need a bill for this but software in everything from tractors to blenders makes it easy for manufacturers to withhold access to repair. Not anymore for CO farmers! pirg.org/colorado/updat…
A top woman in the Biden administration just attempted to commit ecocide. It's time to name names. It's time to show receipts. (1/8) 🧵

Derailments of freight trains carrying toxic cargo pose a threat to the ecosystems and communities they pass, like the town of East Palestine, Ohio. The catastrophe is a harbinger of what could happen in #Colorado if the Uinta Basin Railway is constructed. coloradonewsline.com/2023/03/07/oil…
