2011 Legislative Priorities
Colorado Environmental Coalition and its conservation partners have an exciting proactive agenda for 2011 and will also work hard to protect the environmental gains achieved in the past four years. Our priorities at the Capitol for the 2011 Legislative Session include:
- Making our buildings and homes greener (and cheaper) through energy efficient construction and retrofits;
- Ensuring that we minimize our waste by improving recycling efforts; and
- Protecting critical environmental gains like the renewable energy standard, The Clean Air Clean Jobs Act, increased funding for transit and rules that protect our public health and environment from the impacts of oil and gas drilling.
In addition to these priorities, CEC will work, as always, to champion smart conservation legislation to preserve this state's bounty of natural resources and environmental wonders.
Stay tuned and get involved as CEC and our coalition partners work in the upcoming 2011 session to ramp-up recycling and energy efficiency legislation in the state as well as protect Colorado’s last remaining wild lands from the ravages of reckless oil and gas drilling.
