And so, I am urging you to agree with my idea and pass it to keep Colorado beautiful, safe, healthy, majestic, wonderful, and so many more.]]> 2020-12-17 17:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625872 2040619 https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625876 Colorado is slowly becoming more energy efficient. We are now changing coal powered items a newer and better way, solar powered. Plus, even though a little bit of coal power will remain, the price will significantly decrease.]]> 2020-12-17 17:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625876 2040619 https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625877 Colorado was hit very hard by COVID-19. The CREA (Colorado Rural Electric Association) has helped Colorado. And this is very useful because since CREA is helping it could result in less deaths from COVID-19 in Colorado]]> 2020-12-17 17:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625877 2040619 https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625880 Colorado has over 3,500 companies and businesses that rely on renewable energy sources.  Plus, Colorado's renewable energy sector is thriving.
Since more businesses and companies in Colorado are starting to rely on renewable energy, less pollution could be emitted. ]]> 2020-12-17 17:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625880 2040619 https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625883 Where does Colorado rank along with the other 49 states?
Colorado is among the top 20 for states who use the most renewable energy. Colorado is ranked #1 on the list of all 50 states when it comes to best economy. Colorado is in the top 20 states for those who release the least amount of pollution.
Colorado's statistics across the charts are scattered. These statistics are sustainable because we can learn where states rank on lists about certain facts.
Colorado ranks in many different spots which is why this is so important. Impacting others is essential because of the amounts of pollution you emit can cause significant damage to other people's health as well as your health and safety.]]> 2020-12-17 17:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625883 2040619 https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625884 Colorado was hit extremely hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. LNG authorizations have been extended until the year 2050. The DOE has been helping CO.

As solar power becomes more and more popular across the country, Colorado was one of the first states to have their own renewable energy standard. Many companies are starting to rely on solar power which was most popular amongst Colorado in 2016. One of those companies was IKEA. Colorado has been using this solar power to help innovate the future and keep us alive and power our houses and businesses because we can't just rely on our phones forever.]]> 2020-12-17 17:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625887 2040619 https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625889 In this picture, we see how soon the great state of Colorado can be more reliant on renewable energy.
By the year 2030, Colorado is projected to have over 30% more renewable energy]]> 2020-12-17 17:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625889 2040619 https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625892 The Polis administration plans to have Colorado using 100% renewable energy by 2040

With this image, we see the comparison of energy mixes of 2019 and 2024.  
The percentage change is something that you should be very much aware of.]]> 2020-12-17 17:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625893 2040619 https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625896 1. Since the year 2010, Colorado's electricity reliability based on renewable sources has doubled!  As of 2019, 25% net generation has been led by solar power and wind power. 
2. Colorado ranks number 7 on the largest natural-gas producing states list and number 6 on the list of states with natural gas reserves
3. In 2019, Colorado’s coal-fired power plants provided 45% of Colorado’s net generation.  This is a huge downsize from 2010 when it was 68%.  Clearly, electricity that comes from natural gas is on the rise ]]> 2020-12-17 17:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625896 2040619 https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625897 Renewable Energy in Colorado works in many different ways, including recycling energy and helping restore energy as well
It is better than most other options because of the fact that it provides more jobs and doesn't emit as much pollution
It is used for job creation, fuel, electricity, and more]]> 2020-12-17 17:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625897 2040619 https://padlet.com/2040619/kju0e869nwch9pa5/wish/1028625898 Renewable energy is being used across the country and probably across the world
Consumers, businesses, and many more are using this
We are using this to keep our electricity running
