About

Be The Change—Colorado

We are a progressive grassroots organization dedicated to advancing the common good, or “ the good of the whole” as the concept is expressed in the Colorado constitution.  Its efforts over the last 10 years have been largely directed at exposing the extreme climate and public health dangers industrial scale oil and gas development pose to the people and the planet.

Be The Change supports:

Stronger Fracking Regulations

Although Be The Change does not support a state-wide fracking ban in Colorado, we do support stricter regulations on the industry, including closed loop fracking systems, strict limits on air emissions, comprehensive monitoring of methane emissions, ground water monitoring, and health studies of residents near fracking wells.

Be The Change is proud to host Phil Doe and Wes Wilson as resident experts in water and fracking regulations.  Phil and Wes have traveled extensively throughout the state and lectured local communities on the hazards of fracking.

Community Rights

Be The Change supports the right of municipalities and counties to regulate industry and commerce within their jurisdictions, including the right to ban industries and processes they deem harmful to the health of their communities.The struggle for these rights arose due to the fracking boom that hit Colorado in the past several years. In the 2013 election,  four front range communities enacted moratoriums and bans on the practice – Boulder, Fort Collins, Lafayette, and Broomfield. These wins follow Longmont’s successful campaign to outright ban fracking in 2012. The wins have faced legal challenges by the oil and gas industry and Governor Hickenlooper, who is a staunch supporter of the fracking industry.

In February 2013, Hickenlooper bragged at a U.S. Senate committee hearing that he drank an experimental (non-toxic) form of fracking fluid. Be The Change believes Governor Hickenlooper should respect the will of  voters who instituted fracking bans and moratoriums and withdraw from legal challenges to their right to regulate this industry – and lay off the fracking fluid!

Action on Climate Change

Be The Change supports drastic reductions in global greenhouse gas emissions and believes the U.S. should lead the world in green energy technologies – wind, solar, and energy conservation. Be The Change supports ex-NASA scientist James Hansen’s goal of 350ppm carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and understands that fracking will not get us to these goals. As Josh Fox of Gasland fame stated – “fracking is not a bridge fuel- it’s a gangplank.”

 Constitutional Amendment to Strip Corporate Rights

Be The Change understands the corrosive effect that corporate power has had on our democracy, and supports Move To Amend‘s efforts to amend the U.S. Constitution to state that “Money is not Speech, and Corporations are not People.”

Single Payer Health Care

Be The Change supports Health Care For All Colorado‘s efforts to implement a universal, public, single payer health care system in Colorado, where everyone is covered and is free to choose their own doctor, but the system is managed by the state.

 State-Owned Bank

North Dakota has run their own bank for close to a century, and has reaped enormous financial benefit while lending money to citizens and local businesses. Be The Change supports efforts to create a state-owned bank in Colorado based on the North Dakota model.

    I recently watched the documentary, “Gasland”. I was disturbed but not so surprised by the negative impact fracking had upon the lives of everyday working people who lived in proximity to where things were being carried out. I was extremely disturbed to discover that the industry became immunized to clean air and water legislation. I am making it a point to learn what I can about this approach toward energy independence from a cost benefit ratio. Given what I am learning I am strongly opposed to the continuation of fracking, unless and until it becomes better regulated, safeguards are put in place to curtail environmental impact… reversing the “Haliburton exemption”, and even if these measurers become implemented, I still oppose it. As we approach the tipping point whereby the window of time that allows human endeavor to effectively mitigate climate change slams shut with a resounding thud, I can only support pursuing clean and renewable energy’s best practices. Please continue your noble research, outreach and advocacy with my deepest gratitude.
