Colorado Sun Reporter Michael Booth said commission members are planning to hear more about these concerns at a public hearing.

Now, a new piece of Boulder’s energy code aims to limit emissions before construction has even started. On today’s episode of In The NoCo, we explore the concept of ‘embodied carbon’ - and why Boulder leaders are embracing it.
