Denver's e-bike rebate launched today on #EarthDay2022. It's part of the city's new Climate Action Rebate Program! $400 rebate = e-bike, additional $500 rebate = cargo e-bike (400+ pounds) Some incomes qualify for $1,200! denvergov.org/Government/Age…

CO is skipping #EarthDay2022, we doing Extreme Critical risk day. Basically, 'want to help the earth, CO? Don't burn shit.' Seriously the whole state was told to do a go-bag and an escape route for today. 18th consec days of Red Flag Warnings IN APRIL! Summer will be unreal.

Being honest I’m both excited and so nervous about the walkouts tomorrow. With any action it’s nerve racking, but its been lovely teaming up with the students at North. We have been working our butts off and it will be amazing to see how all the work turns out!

Update for petition/walkouts: We got a response from the district, but we will still be following through with our walkout plans. There are organized walkouts for Denver North High School and Thomas Jefferson High School Times: TJ- 9:40 North- 9:53 DM me for more details!

Students at TJ and North High are walking out tomorrow because of the district’s Covid regulations— they tell me they feel unsafe at school w/ the rise in cases because there are not enough masks or tests available. I’ll have more on this coming up tonight at 10 on @CBSDenver.

Letter to Superintendent Marrero from Denver Public School students at TJ and North who are organizing #DPSyouthCOVIDsafe walkouts in their district. @DrAlexMarrero @DPSNewsNow @9NEWS @denverpost @DenverChannel @CBSDenver @ChalkbeatCO @ColoradoSun DM with Qs

Denver Pub Sch students are fed up! School during #Omicron is really diff from last sem, we need the district to help us be safe so we can focus on classes! @DrAlexMarrero @MayorHancock @RepDianaDeGette @DPSNewsNow @GovofCO @ChalkbeatCO @9NEWS @denverpost today.com/parents/teens/fed-…

DPS students want to be safe. Want to protect the elders in their families. Want their teachers to be safe. 1 in 3 COVID19 tests is positive and testing is not readily available. Temporary remote work. I wholeheartedly agree. @DPSNewsNow @COpoliticsCO

THE PETITION IS UP! It’s been up for a day now and we have 378 signatures, let’s keep this rolling, if you haven’t signed it here is the link: change.org/p/denver-public-s…

CALLING OUT DPS STUDENTS AND STAFF! My peers and I are working on getting a petition to get safer learning environments for all the students having to stay in person. Anyone in the @DPSNewsNow (Denver Public School) interested in helping out pls DM! #covid19 #school

it’s still a longshot, but the open CD7 seat probably represents climate activists’ best shot in 2022 at closing the incredible gap between the number of Coloradans who support a Green New Deal (~60%) and the share of its congressional delegation that does (11%)

"The last strike by grocery workers in Colorado was in 1996. Union members at King Soopers walked off the job and Safeway and Albertsons eventually locked out union members. The strike lasted 42 days."

King Soopers union going on strike soon, Colo. Voted in Den on Sun, vote today in COS. Filed a lawsuit against Kroger too. Current contract expires 1/8. When strike starts TBD. Support essential grocery store workers! Prep to stay away. Shop somewhere else during, if you can!

This is a very American scenario. People outside the US switched to N95 forever ago to properly fend off COVID. 🔥N95 masks with two straps and a valve in your fire go bag, plus surgical masks to cover valve when indoors 😷N95 masks without valve for COVID-19

The #MarshallFire took front range Coloradans perceived safety with it. We thought we were safe since we are surrounded by buildings instead of trees. Nope. #ClimateCrisis is coming for us all and firestorms are definitely a thing. BUT we control our preparations. Start now!

After this view last night looked like an inferno, my house in #LouisvilleCO survived and is now covered in snow. #MarshallFire [Photo Credit: @hrichardson @denverpost]

THIS! Old Rocky Flats Plutonium Plant is in the yellow pre evac. It’s now a “wildlife refuge” that is still so dangerous my school district refuses to do field trips there. Look up Rocky Flats Downwinders and the book Full Body Burden. When you think things can’t get worse!

I've been trying to explain to people not from Colorado how this is happening right in a developed urban area, and this photo really drives it home.
