The Fight to End New Fracking Permits in Colorado
Grassroots groups in Colorado have launched a campaign to phase out fracking using a statewide ballot initiative. The campaign builds on long-term efforts to overcome government and industry opposition to implementing protections for the health of front line residents and the state’s land, air, and water.
Join us for this live webinar with Patricia Garcia-Nelson and Micah Parkin from the Safe and Healthy Colorado coalition. They will talk about the campaign to end fracking and the strategy behind using the ballot initiative to phase out oil & gas permitting. Patricia and Micah will talk about the health impacts that people on the ground are suffering, the opposition they’ve faced from local officials and the oil & gas industry, and how the campaign came together.
At the event, Micah and Patricia will share ways you can support their efforts whether you’re based in Colorado or coming from elsewhere.
This will be a great opportunity for individuals and organizations in other states to learn about the ballot initiative strategy and how it might apply in your state.
The live discussion will be followed by an audience Q&A.
