By Sam Brasch Verified, Megan Verlee Verified| KSJD-FM (Cortez, CO) Verified This story was produced as part of the Colorado Capitol News Alliance. It first appeared at cpr.org. Since his first run for governor, Gov. Jared Polis has pledged to put Colorado on a path to rely on 100 percent clean electricity by 2040 — a decade sooner than currently required under state law. His administration is now pushing to introduce a bill to enshrine the campaign promise into statute a year before he leaves office.
By Sam Brasch Verified| Durango Herald Verified An insect known for turning entire mountainsides the color of rust could be making a resurgence in Colorado. The pest is none other than the mountain pine beetle. After a roughly decade-long period of relatively lower populations, the bugs are rebuilding their numbers along the Front Range and in southwest Colorado, according to an annual forest health report published by the Colorado State Forest Service in late March.
Company Info
Colorado Public Radio
Colorado Public Radio (CPR) is a non-profit, member-supported public radio network that has been serving Colorado since 1951. It began with KRCC and evolved into its current form in 1991 after merging with KPRN. CPR operates three main services: a news division that provides statewide coverage, a classical music service featuring local artists, and a platform for independent music that highlights both local and national indie musicians. CPR's network includes full-power stations and low-power translators, reaching 90% of Colorado's population. The organization is primarily funded through private donations, business sponsorships, and foundations, with a significant portion of its revenue coming from these sources. CPR is part of a larger public radio network and aims to offer free access to news and cultural programming, focusing on local relevance and public service. Its digital presence includes popular news websites that provide articles, podcasts, and cultural content.
