It was a beautiful and impactful day of grassroots organizations and community coming together to share their top concerns and solutions with decision makers.

The infusion of arts, movement, music, Indigenous wisdom, youth, and divine femininity are what truly make our events powerfully different as we plant the seeds for the beautiful world we want to create 🌱☀️💕

The tour demonstrated the cumulative and compounding pollution burdens facing North Denver and Commerce City. Neighborhoods surrounded by railroads, highways, contaminated rivers, the smell of Purina, the gas plant, Suncor oil and gas refinery, and under construction CoreSite data center. The day also emphasized social justice issues many Coloradans are facing including immigration and housing burdens. The tour highlighted community based solutions, including community land trusts, community investment funds, accessible healthcare, and organizations like The Green House & Cultivando who are elevating community voices and solutions towards needed pollution reductions and improved health outcomes that our communities need and deserve.

Powerful in our advocacy is putting a visual to the invisible pollution that is impacting our communities through Earthworks OGI (Oil and Gas Imaging) Camera is a powerful tool that everyone needs to open their eyes to. Key to the success of the day is our community and our partners Cultivando, Earthworks, Morganic Matters/Sierra Mae, Colorado Sierra Club, Culture Expanse, Community Language Cooperative, Jules, Eutima, Love My Air, Tepeyac Health and Rose Tinted Vision.
