CU Yard Sale

Resource Central: Materials Reuse 6400 Arapahoe Rd, Boulder, CO, United States

Resource Central and the Environmental Center at the University of Colorado Boulder are teaming up to divert thousands of pounds of material from landfills this year during the CU student move out. Since 2019, an estimated 65,000 lbs of dorm materials have been diverted from landfills through this program. This year, the range of accepted items has been broadened, which will likely result in an increase in the amount of pounds collected.  We will bring these items back to our Materials Reuse Facility, where they will be available for the public to shop at a sharply discounted rate.

Roots of Injustice, Seeds of Change: Toward Right Relationship with Native Peoples

And we are invited to consider how we can build relationships with Indigenous peoples based on truth, respect, justice, and our shared humanity. Facilitated by TRR's Native and non-Native teams.

Nuclear Nexus & Nuclear Guardianship Collective

Virtual

RMPJC was founded with a main focus of closing down the Rocky Flats nuclear plant. In coordination with AFSC Denver, Greenpeace, and numerous other organizations, RMPJC worked to end the production of potentially harmful nuclear waste. Over time, RMPJC became the foremost peace and environmental group working steadily for the best possible procedures to properly clean up the already thoroughly contaminated site. However, due to an improper “clean up” by government agencies, the efforts to clean up Rocky flats and make it habitable once again is still underway.
