A water provider in metro Denver has faced a lose-lose situation: Apply for state funding for water projects and risk giving up tax revenue — or abstain from seeking the millions of dollars of available grant money altogether. It’s a bad choice voters can help an Adams County water district avoid by passing a ballot measure this fall. The South Adams County Water and Sanitation District provides water to 70,000 people in Commerce City.

The Regional Transportation District board that directs public transit around metro Denver could gain two front-line bus drivers, bringing street smarts, and a 25-year-old who vows to make rides safer for a new generation after the November election. Another candidate asking voters for a seat on the RTD’s 15-member board doesn’t own a car and says he’s fed up with waiting longer than expected for buses and trains.

Wildfires are burning through the carbon budget that humans have allocated themselves to limit global heating, a study shows. The authors said this accelerating trend was approaching—and may have already breached—a “critical temperature threshold” after which fires cause significant shifts in tree cover and carbon storage. “Alarmingly, the latest temperature at which, globally, these impacts become pronounced is 1.34 C—close to current levels of warming” above preindustrial levels, said the UK Met Office, which led the research. Forests are going up in smoke in Brazil, the US, Greece, Portugal, and even the Arctic Circle amid Earth’s two hottest years in recorded history. “Fires are reducing the ability of forests and other ecosystems to store carbon, narrowing our window to keep global warming in check.” Each fire has a double impact on the global climate: first, by emitting carbon from the burned trees, and second, by reducing the capacity of forests to absorb carbon dioxide. This adds to the heat in the Earth system, which has already been raised by the burning of gas, oil, and coal.
