America has a long-standing & bipartisan tradition of environmental conservation. As a biologist whose graduate research was on a federally threatened species, I am deeply troubled by the proposed changes that will weaken science-based protections & undermine decades of progress.
#BREAKING: A bipartisan group of 193 state legislators nationwide is urging federal wildlife agencies to withdraw proposed rule changes to the Endangered Species Act that could weaken protections for species and habitats. Learn more: ncelenviro.org/articles/190-…

TODAY: @PermitPower_ participated in a webinar with over 100 elected leaders & staff members to discuss consumer benefits of instant clean energy product installation permitting. More local governments and states deploying instant permitting means less red tape for families and more solar. Huge thank you to our co-presenters @Scott_Wiener, @fraserfor15, @ncelenviro, @EnvAm & @SolarAPP_

It was a pleasure to join @ncelenviro and the Ocean Plastics Leadership Network to learn about responsible plastic pollution management. We toured facilities in Maine and Montreal. I am excited to bring what I learned back to Colorado! ♻️

In Charleston today speaking at and participating in a forum on “building the grid of the future” sponsored by ⁦@ncelenviro⁩. My deep dive into South Carolina’s mode of electrical energy generation and transmission started in July 2017, triggered by the VC Summer debacle.

Thank you! Excited to be recognized for one of my top passions and priorities. Environmental issues impact each and every one of us, and Utah is falling behind our peers in ensuring that our communities are healthy and sustainable.
