15 wolves promised to Colorado by a Washington tribe aren’t coming. Here’s why. coloradosun.com/2024/08/06/w… via @writertracyross #copolitics
I got to listen to an art elder break down the little-known Colorado counterculture in the most unlikely (or likely) setting and then watch a daughter of the counterculture build the machinery of community all on Mon-Tues, all for @ColoradoSun
At the Wildfire and Forests Innovation Summit where some truly inspiring ideas are floating around. Stories for @ColoradoSun to come. (Not a bad location either—@DenverMuseumNS )

This is a phenomenal story about the corrupt AF global fishing industry—mainly China’s. I’ll be thinking about it for a long time.
"The country is largely unresponsive to international laws, and its fleet is the worst perpetrator of illegal fishing in the world, helping drive species to the brink of extinction."

Was having the suckiest week ever, then went to hang with the president and CEO of @TrimbleCorpNews to talk autonomous farm equipment and see a paver drive itself and now I feel 1M times better, which begs the question, who am I? For @ColoradoSun

I went deep on a @ColoradoSun story about human-moose interactions (on the rise in WUI areas), with lots of help from @COParksWildlife and two neighbors who’ve been seriously injured in moose run-ins. Lots to learn about a fascinating animal.

“Newspaper publishers have got to stop being afraid of their readers, and just be transparent and have a normal conversation.”
Can the results in Newton, Kansas, be exported to rural publications in Colorado? Or across the country?

I’ve always worked best in semi-rundown camping scenarios, so I’m baffled by how long it’s taken me to seek shelter here, just the right amount of yards away from the family.
Clearer headspace time. Still working on making it just right. But most importantly, #amwriting
The panel on ways Colorado leaders are addressing homelessness at the @ColoradoSun’s #SunFest2023 today blew my mind. Here’s another slice of the issue, which I wrote about, in which people are living in RV’s to get by.

Happy #NationalPublicLandsDay! I am so grateful to live in a country with lots them. Our best idea for sure. I’m going to spend some time today meditating on how I can be a better steward of them (got some cool ideas cooking). You?

Bill Ritter says we’ll all need to make sacrifices if we’re going to develop green energy. My latest in @ColoradoSun about two geothermal energy developers and the opposition they’re facing in Chaffee County.

A14-year-old boy struggled to survive at a remote Colorado campsite, where he, his mother and aunt set out to live “off the grid,” before he wasted down to 40 pounds and all three died of malnutrition and hypothermia, autopsy reports show.
