OUR
ISSUES
CONSERVATION COLORADO EDUCATION FUND SEEKS TO PROTECT WHAT MAKES OUR STATE UNLIKE ANY OTHER: OUR SPECTACULAR NATURAL ENVIRONMENT.
Our magnificent mountains, clear rivers, and wide open blue skies are rivaled by none. The stunning granite spires of Browns Canyon, the lush wildflower meadows of the Maroon Bells, and the seemingly endless sagebrush sea that expands across northwest Colorado provide us with a truly exceptional quality of life.
Unfortunately, an array of anti-conservation interests, coupled with environmental risks such as accelerating climate change, threaten to harm the state we love. We need to work together to protect the Colorado we cherish.
Climate & Clean Energy
Climate change is already impacting Colorado’s people, economy, wild places and way of life. We’re seeing hotter temperatures and drier summers; larger, more devastating wildfires; and shorter winters. It’s critical that our leaders prioritize combating climate change and acting for communities that bear a disproportionate burden of environmental pollution.
Lands, Water & Wildlife
Colorado’s lands and rivers define our state, provide world-class recreation opportunities, and support our state’s ecosystems. Yet climate change and sprawling development are threatening our open spaces, natural resources, and unique wildlife.
Communities & Justice
At Conservation Colorado Education Fund, we are working to secure a healthy environment for all communities in Colorado. For generations, disproportionately impacted communities – diverse communities who face higher environmental and health burdens due to pollution and climate change – have shown resilience and leadership in advocating for their rights and protecting the environment. Despite this, they have often been excluded from decision-making spaces, leaving their voices and experiences out of policies that affect their lives. At Conservation Colorado Education Fund, we are working to ensure the lived experiences of communities affected by environmental injustice are at the center of creating equitable and lasting environmental solutions.
