The Phase Out Fracking Action Party hosted by 350 Colorado in support of the Safe & Healthy Colorado ballot initiative at the Boulder County Courthouse on Saturday, June 10th was a big success! Attached and here are some photos and below are next steps to continue to take action to protect Colorado’s land, air, water, public health, AND help keep fossil fuels in the ground.
It was great to see so many of you from the GreenFaith Boulder County Circle there, joining more than 100 other supporters who engaged with hundreds of people walking on Pearl St during the 5-hour event.
At 12 different events throughout Colorado last weekend, we showed up in our communities to call for a Fracking Phase Out by 2030 as part of the nationwide week of action (over 50 events coast to coast!) calling to #EndTheEra of Fossil Fuels. Check out the photos from actions around the state.
THANK YOU to everyone who made it all possible!
