Colorado\u2019s water supply is strained by climate change, a growing population and the demands of new technologies like AI data centers. The Colorado Sun is looking at these challenges through the lens of communities and people who have developed creative solutions, who are doing the hard work of saving water, and whether those ideas can be scaled.\u00a0<\/p>\n

We\u2019re embarking on a listening tour in order to better understand the work being done throughout the state. As part of this effort, we want to hear from Coloradans about the water-related issues they want to learn most about or projects happening around you that can be replicated in other communities.\u00a0<\/p>\n
