Colorado's natural beauty is why people move here, and why I won't move away! I believe in treating the land with reverence and respect it deserves. This means embracing smart growth -- balancing the tension between development and protection of our open spaces -- and creating sustainable energy sources that will lead us into the future.
It also means championing initiatives that will protect our planet and mitigate climate change.
And protecting the environment includes mitigating threats like fire, animal waste, litter and pollutants.
