Peter Cudlip and Alberta Development, along with the Town Council in their pockets, wish the activists would go away. That’s not happening, as the following story from the Castle Rock News-Press details. Activists continue fight for prairie dogs Group explores options to protect wildlife from future development As protesters stood at Founders Parkway and Factory […]

Another day, another assault on democratic governance and the Colorado ecosystem by the Castle Rock Town Council. Following up the February 17 2015 meeting, last night the Council OKed the continued development of the invasive and destructive “mega-mall”. Fox 21 Denver reported on the meeting: http://kdvr.com/2015/03/03/castle-rock-approves-mega-mall-after-heated-hearing-over-prairie-dogs/ As with the last session, many activists and lovers of […]

What’s wrong with this picture? It didn’t take much research to uncover the disingenuousness of Mayor Donahue’s comments at the February 17 Castle Rock Town Council Meeting. At that gathering, Donahue summarily dismissed nearly 25 testimonials (1½ hours of public comment, i.e.) opposed to the construction of the Promenade Mall, muttering comments about ‘jobs’ and […]

Land developers have reared their ugly heads recently in Castle Rock, Colorado, where they have begun constructions on a 900,00-square-foot abomination called the Promenade Mall. Unfortunately for the local ecosystem, this construction will wipe out the thousands of prairie dogs who live where the mall is being constructed, and will irreparably harm scores of other […]

Despite a staged vote by the Castle Rock Town Council (following a sham ‘appeal’ process) to allow the Promenade Mall ecocide project to continue, lovers of life and the planet continue their efforts to save as many prairie dogs as possible. And their efforts continue to draw media attention. http://denver.cbslocal.com/2015/02/19/wildlife-advocates-want-to-protect-prairie-dogs-in-path-of-new-development/ Sadly, Mr. Cudlip had no […]

Deep Green Resistance would like to thank the Castle Rock Town Council for reminding us activists why we can’t let up, ever, in our efforts to save the planet. (Hint: It’s mainly because the so-called ‘stewards’ of the community sure as shit aren’t going to do it.) Last night, at the Town Meeting, the Council […]

Editor’s Note: The following is an adaptation of a letter written by a member of Deep Green Resistance and of Wildlands Defense. As a member of Deep Green Resistance and a Colorado resident myself, I reprint the letter here in the hope it can spark interest on the part of other residents and lovers of […]

  “Land swaps” seem to be a trend lately. Deep Green Resistance and others have noted, for example, the Swap that cedes land sacred to the San Carlos Apache tribe to mining interests. Another land swap is in play, this time closer to home. The following story is reprinted from the Summit County Citizens Voice. And again, the proposed swap is […]
