Electing Pro-Conservation Leaders - Conservation Colorado

Elections & Organizing

To protect our air, land, water, and people – who we elect to office matters. Whether it’s minimizing the impacts of oil and gas activity on our communities, protecting wild places across our state, or taking real steps to address climate change, elected officials are in a position to greatly help – or harm – everything we love about Colorado.

Elections matter. If you care about protecting our communities and prioritizing conservation, learn who is an environmental champion and be sure to VOTE!

With Governor Polis and a pro-conservation majority in the state legislature, now is the time for us to shape Colorado’s future.

Conservation Colorado advocates for sound environmental laws and policies that are equal to the challenges our state faces. We hold elected officials accountable for their votes and actions and elect pro-environment candidates who will lead on our priority issues.

Protecting our environment requires powerful grassroots support. Our grassroots movement includes programs on the ground engaging people in their local communities and driving online action
