Excited to be @bouldercounty learning about their innovative work on climate change & environmental justice. First stop: an air quality monitor station, which helps us understand how emissions affect ozone levels. Long-term exposure to ozone causes higher rates of illness & death

@NewYorker "These companies that have led us to chase our tails, to focus on our own carbon footprints, and not on the massive shift we need to see. This could be our moment of system change." | @billmckibben @SusieStrife newyorker.com/news/daily-com…

Little one: “Mom, you are a doctor of the earth right?” Me: “Yes, I guess you could say that.” Little one: “So you can check the planet’s heartbeat?” Me: “I am more concerned with the planet’s temperature.” Little one: “Ohhhh. Good, Mom. You can watch out for any fevers."

Colorado's air quality needs a breath of fresh air! 🌬️💨 The Protecting Communities from Pollution Act is a critical step forward in tackling the state's public health crisis caused by air pollution. Learn more about the bill here 👉bouldercounty.gov/news/groundbre…

California has just committed to a climate investment that is, on a per-capita basis, almost 3x the size of the IRA. Proud to present our report on what is in the package, how it came together, and what needs to happen next --> climate100.nextgenpolicy.org/progress-towar…

@jasonclimateguy @DACCoalition You are doing the most important work! Yay you!

One year ago, I left my job to focus 100% on building the @DACCoalition. Besides marrying my wife and starting our family, it's been easily the best and most rewarding decision I've ever made. Can't wait to see what Year 2 on the job has in store. 😀
