- May 2: Energy & Wildlife Workshop in Ft Collins
Are you worried about the future of fish and wildlife in Colorado?
You’re invited to a free energy, climate & wildlife advocacy training workshop.
Oil and gas drilling, oil shale development, and climate change have the potential to severely impact fish and wildlife populations in Colorado. These problems don’t need to occur. With a balanced approach, we can have common sense energy development and maintain our wonderful outdoor heritage. The workshop will focus on communicating the best science regarding how energy development and climate change could impact Colorado’s fish and wildlife, ways to share this information with others, approaches to garner local media coverage, and effective techniques to influence local government officials. Every one attending the workshop will leave with a packet of info and advocacy tips and a disk containing a presentation on the issues.
Saturday, May 2, 1-4 p.m.
Ben Delatour Room
Fort Collins Main Public Library
201 Peterson Street
