The Colorado Climate Center has confirmed that 2019 was the hottest year on record for the state of Colorado. In addition to this, we are experiencing country-wide fires in Australia and abnormally large tides stretching from the U.S. coast to New Zealand.

La Plata Electric Association board of directors elections are underway this spring and now is your chance to show support for strong climate action by participating in the 2020 LPEA elections.

Remember, no one is coming to save us, we must save ourselves.
