'Enjoy the ride! I will be pulling for you against the dreaded Eastern Conference champion,' a Lakers fan writes
Regarding the legislature’s plan for “further study” of Colorado’s water problems, who is surprised at yet another kick the can down the road approach to this critical topic? This is not some academic exercise that results in a study that no one will ever read, much less act on.
With bemusement, I observe the pattern that repeats itself once again as spring arrives along the Front Range. Businesses, public spaces, and residential customers are watering their green spaces. The sad part is that they are just guessing about the benchmark topics of when and how much to water. I have raised these items repeatedly with various water authorities around the area, and I might as well be speaking to the wall.
Meanwhile, those of my peers who are involved in irrigated agriculture just shake their heads at this folly that occurs every spring and summer in populated areas. Those peers are using readily available technology to know the answers to the when and how much questions for applying water to their crops. There is just no good reason that that technology cannot be used in urban areas.
I sometimes think that many of our water officials are tone-deaf. How else to explain inaction when the train has already left the station? The end result may well be draconian measures that are too little, too late. The solutions are in our hands. Why are they not being utilized at all levels of government? Where is the leadership on this topic?RE: “Polis vetoes bill that would have delayed wolf releases,” May 17 news storyI am proud to be a Colorado resident with you as governor.
As a retired teacher who has spent my entire career trying to dispel “the big bad wolf” myth, educating others that all life is priceless, intrinsically valuable for its role in bringing balance to diverse ecosystems, and deserves to be respected, I am very grateful to you Governor Polis for sending this same message.
