Center For ReSource Conservation  (CRC) is one of Boulder's oldest environmental advocacy and education organizations.

They can help you understand all of the new incentives the Local and Federal governments have enacted to help us all make our homes more efficient. Check them out for a home energy audit, solar power details, or a workshop on water conservation.

Climate Smart along with the CRC is Boulder's concierge to the area's sustainable/environmental activities. Check this site for a graph showing how Boulder is improving its GHG emissions.

We have added a link to their sites under our local partners section.  See our links for updates on new sustainable transportation and Boulder Organizations.

Now a new study led by Nadine Unger of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) in New York City offers a more intuitive way to understand what's changing the Earth's climate. Rather than analyzing impacts by chemical species, scientists have analyzed the climate impacts by different economic sectors..."

Boulder County creates region’s first community-wide transit pass program

Boulder County, Colo. – In partnership with residents of Gold Hill and other mountain communities, Boulder County has created the Climb Community Transit Pass to improve access to and from Boulder.

The program, the first of its kind in the region, continues Boulder County’s commitment to providing transportation options to residents by enhancing existing transit services.

 The annual pass provides free, unlimited access to the “Climb” bus route from Ward and Gold Hill. The pass is available to residents who live within a half mile of the Climb route, including the areas of Ward, Gold Hill, Summerville, Salina, Four Mile Canyon and Logan Mill Road.
