Summer Blessings from the BoCo Climate Justice Hive!
Boulder County is green and growing. May you soak in the beauty and marvel at the vibrancy, resilience and intelligence of our plant kin.
There are so many ways to connect with others who care about the planet and people on the Boulder County Climate Justice Event Calendar! Thank you for being part of this community.
Good news! The Hive has a $25,000 matching grant opportunity. We are over halfway there!
We are inviting the whole community to come together to make magic happen – be one of the many drops that collectively make a larger impact than any of us can alone.
Your gift will be doubled until we meet our goal! This newsletter reaches 1000 people. If just half of us give an average of $25, we will more than meet our goal financially, but even more, we will weave a layer of community with one another.

About the Hive:
In an effort to connect conversations, coordinate more effectively, and incentivize collaboration, Naropa University’s Joanna Macy Center for Resilience and Regeneration and Boulder Dot Earth created the BoCo Climate Justice Hive to bring together various community-based climate justice efforts.
The Hive collects and shares up-to-date information about who’s doing what and where, ‘cross-pollinating’ neighborhoods, communities, and sectors in Boulder County by weaving connections from grassroots to grass-tops as well as across the non-profit, academic, business, and government worlds.
The Hive is creating an easy-to-navigate, interactive online map that can be shared in English and Spanish through any participating organization’s website, illustrating formal, informal, and potentially collaborative networks. This online platform is being prototyped in Boulder County with plans to scale and replicate it to benefit other communities.
Curious to learn more? Check out this 9-min video introducing the Boulder County Climate Justice Hive. Subtitles available in English and Spanish.
And find the Hive on the City of Boulder’s “Let’s Talk Boulder” podcast in Episode 4: Coping with the Climate Crisis (min 36:35-38:41).
