Healthy Rivers, Healthy Kids
Governor Hickenlooper, Water Board Director Mitchell
Innovation will play an important role in ensuring Colorado grows in a sustainable, smart way, but technology alone won’t fully address current and future water shortages. We need leadership from the State NOW to make sure that Colorado’s Water Plan is put into action.
If we don’t implement the Water Plan’s smart solutions for water conservation, healthy rivers, and maintaining our local farmlands NOW, it could be too late for our kids to have the same Colorado we love and enjoy today.
TAKE ACTION: Let Governor Hickenlooper and Water Board Director Mitchell know that Coloradans want the Water Plan implemented as soon as possible >

You have seen the news - Colorado is expected to add an additional 3 million people to our state in only a few decades. Fortunately, you have already drafted a plan that charts a course to solve one of the biggest problems our kids will have to deal with: a shortage of water.
Thanks to your hard work, Colorado’s Water Plan prepares for a more populous future for our state. However, a plan is only as good as it is implementation - and right now there is a gap in the prioritization of funding that needs to be filled for the Water Plan to have a measurable impact on advancing water conservation, ensuring healthy rivers, and keeping farmland productive.
Please take this letter from Coloradans across the state as an urging to continue prioritizing these vital aspects of the Water Plan.
