Current Opportunities & Future Progress

This is an opportunity offered on a quarterly basis to gain awareness of innovative ideas, conversations, and projects happening around Colorado's commitment to a more climate-adapted and resilient future.

The purpose of this series is to equip local governments with the tools, resources, and knowledge aimed at addressing climate change in Colorado. This is facilitated by including speakers who are subject matter experts that provide different perspectives and build awareness of the opportunities available and strategies to implement.
