SUMMARY:Local Public Hearing on State Sunlight/Long Well Pad
DESCRIPTION:SAVE THE DATE for this in-person ECMC Public Hearing. Your voice and presence are the only things standing between our families and this reckless fracking site. \nAs we get closer to the public hearing date\, the ECMC will provide an official RSVP link that will be shared with those that RSVP to this action network event. You may indicate on the RSVP if you would like to attend\, if you would like to give a comment to the Commissioners\, and if you will be bringing any children (childcare will be provided on-site). \nDoors will open at 4:45 pm. \nSIGN UP HERE \nWhy You Should Care & Why You MUST Show Up\nThe Sunlight-Long mega well pad isn’t just another oil & gas project — it’s a dangerous industrial site proposed right next to our homes\, schools\, and water supply. \nUniqueness of the Location = Maximum Risk \n\n32 wells placed on one 35+ acre pad (roughly the size of a shopping mall). Industrial drilling\, on a scale rarely seen in Colorado\, is proposed just over a half a mile from the closest homes.\nOver 10\,000 households within a 2-mile radius\, including an estimated 7\,800 children and 4\,000 seniors.\nJust 1 mile from two elementary schools and less than 2 miles from a middle school and high school.\nAurora Reservoir\, our city’s primary drinking water source\, is just 0.6 miles from the proposed Sunlight-Long mega well pad. Sunlight-Long drilling is not only proposed next to\, but also below\, this vital Aurora water supply. One accident or leak\, and we could be living through our own Erin Brockovich disaster. Do we really want to gamble with the water our children drink every single day?\n\nSunlight-Long Poses Major Health Risks\n\nOf great concern to community members\, children living within 3 miles of oil & gas wells have nearly double the risk of developing acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)\, especially in high-activity areas (more from this critical study here). With the Sunlight-Long well pad\, 32 new wells are planned near our homes.\nThe Denver metro area ranks as the 6th most ozone-polluted city in the U.S.\, for the third year in a row (American Lung Association report). Since June 1\, our neighborhood has had 50 ozone alert days\, when children and seniors are advised to stay indoors. Oil and gas operations contribute 60% of Colorado’s ozone pollution (read more).\nFugitive emissions (toxic\, unmonitored vapors) from well pads will travel undetected into our homes\, posing serious health risks (EPA’s Methane Emissions page).\n\nWe only have one way to stop it: overwhelming public pressure \nramps\, elevators\, and accessible restrooms

SUMMARY:Creek Week Cleanup 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Fountain Creek Watershed needs helping hands!\nIt’s common for trash and debris to end up in waterways – clogging drainage systems\, impacting wildlife\, affecting water quality\, and ruining the view of our natural landscapes. \nBe part of the largest watershed-wide clean-up in the state of Colorado! Creek Week volunteers clean up litter along a creek\, trail\, park\, or open space throughout the watershed. We’re inviting individuals and groups (families\, clubs\, schools\, neighborhoods\, etc.) to form a Creek Crew. Get outdoors\, get active\, and get busy creating positive change for your community and those living downstream. \nHow to get involved\nCreek Week cleanups happen across the watershed—from Palmer Lake to Pueblo—over nine action-packed days of service and stewardship! \nWhether you’re ready to lead a cleanup or simply want to lend a hand\, there’s a role for everyone.

SUMMARY:Cool Science / CRES - Interactive Microgrid\, Fuel Cell/Battery\, Solar Oven\, etc.
DESCRIPTION:Colorado Renewable Energy Society – Southestern Chapter returns to the Cool Science Carnival Day with a booth and activities! This is one of many booths with activities primarily for grades K-8\, but microgrids and fuel cells may interest adults as well! \nThe event and parking are free. No need to register. \nBooth Location:\nOur booth will be located in front of the UCCS Library\, near the Mountain Lion Statue. \nActivities & Demonstrations at the SECRES Booth:\nWe are planning several interactive STEM exhibits that showcase sustainable energy technologies and their real-world applications: \n1. Microgrid Prototype\nA small-scale working model of a microgrid\, to demonstrate how multiple energy sources (solar\, battery storage\, and hydrogen fuel cells) can work together to power a mini “community.” \nEducational Focus: \n\nHow distributed energy systems work\nImportance of grid resilience and energy independence\nReal-world applications in remote or disaster-prone areas\n\n2. Fuel Cell & Battery Integration Demo\nThis setup will show how hydrogen fuel cells generate electricity and how energy can be stored in batteries for later use. \nEducational Focus: \n\nZero-emission energy generation\nThe role of hydrogen in future energy systems\nStorage and load-balancing challenges in renewable energy\n\n3. Solar-Powered Car Demonstration\nA functioning mini solar car will be available for kids and adults to see in action. Attendees can learn about how solar panels generate electricity to power small motors. \nEducational Focus: \n\nBasics of photovoltaic technology\nSolar energy as a clean transportation fuel\nHands-on fun for kids\, with simple science explanations\n\n4. Solar Oven Display\nWe will have a solar oven set up to show how sunlight can be harnessed for cooking. Depending on the weather\, we may even do a live demo with simple items (like melting chocolate or warming snacks). \nEducational Focus: \n\nSolar heating\nEnergy conservation in daily life\n\nThese activities are designed to be engaging for all ages while sparking curiosity about clean energy and sustainability. \nDraws to the Booth: \n\nInteractive\, hands-on STEM activities\nReal-world applications of green energy technology\nFriendly student and faculty volunteers\nEducational giveaways\n\nWe’re still looking for volunteers to help staff the CRES booth throughout the event. SECRES is also in need of additional volunteers to help with our fall programming. Email Derek Law (d.law@cres-energy.org) if you are interested.

SUMMARY:Volunteer (More Dates Available)
DESCRIPTION:Call Rick at 719-233-6725 to discuss opportunities. \nOnline Work Party on Oct 1\, 15\, 22 or 29. A facilitator guides us as we call our local governments so we can report back on solar permitting costs. The goal is to find out how the US might be able to cut rooftop solar costs. Some reports say rooftop solar is 3X more expensive in the US than Australia. Use the link at the bottom of this page to see “Smart Solar Work Party” options. \nOutreach Volunteer: Help our various groups with events like Sun Day. We will provide the basic information you need. It is a lot easier than you think and very important to our efforts! \nDo you have specific skills\, connections or interests? Let us know.

Click the website link below and select the 10/14/2025 city council meeting.
