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.

Rocky Flats Stewardship Council Meeting

For a matter of such great importance to public health and safety, it is essential that the public is included during this transition.

Green Home Tour – Tour an All-Electric Home in South Boulder

The owner of this 1963 modest 1976-foot south Boulder home moved in on October 2, 2023. She had previously lived in a near German Passive House home, so within the first 8 weeks, she was able to insulate and completely electrify this new-to-her home thanks to her almost one stop shop contractor. Below is a list of some of the work done. She also can share information about rebates, future plans, and her six-month battle with Xcel to stop charging her for gas service.
