Colorado Beyond Coal

Welcome!

The Sierra Club Beyond Coal Campaign in Colorado is building off its momentum with recent victories with several coal plants retiring or being transitioned by 2017 across the Denver / Boulder region. We will continue to work to phase out dirty existing coal plants throughout the state with clean, renewable energy sources to achieve the state's 30% RES standard and the climate action plan for 80% CO2 reduction by 2050.

Join Us: Denver #ForwardOnClimate Legacy Rally

This last year we experienced crippling drought, devastating wildfires and Superstorm Sandy. Climate change is happening -- and the American people get it.

President Obama has the power to curb climate disruption. Whether it’s stopping the Keystone XL Pipeline, rigorously enforcing the Clean Air and Water Act, or by protecting public lands from fossil fuel development -- but it won't happen unless we take action and show him we have his back.
