Good Morning, Colorado, and welcome to the Daily Sun-Up by the Colorado Sun. It’s Wednesday February 3rd, and we’re feeling lucky to start the day with you. 

Today - As Colorado addresses climate change advocates are urging action at a faster pace.

Before we begin, let’s take a look at what happened on this day in Colorado history - adapted from Derek R Everett’s book “Colorado Day by Day”:

Today, we take you back to February 3rd, 1920 when Officials in a small town in Arapahoe County filed incorporation paperwork which enabled them to organize a local government. For a place the humble size of Deer Trail, it boasts a remarkable legacy. For example, in 2013 a handful of residents sought to issue drone hunting licenses, claiming that it was necessary to defend freedom. 

As Colorado attempts to address climate change, emissions from the transportation sector is next on the to-do list. Reporter Michael Booth has more on how some advocates are urging action at a faster pace than currently required.

Thanks for listening. Before we go here are a few stories you should know about today:

 
Three Eagle County men are presumed dead following an avalanche near Silverton Monday afternoon. Rescue crews arrived later that night and continued searching for the men through Tuesday. Two Durango skiers were killed in an avalanche in the same area in December.

Two of the three teenage boys accused of murder in the Green Valley Ranch house fire last August will be tried as adults. The sixteen-year-olds each face sixty charges against them. The Denver district attorney is asking to move the case against the third suspect, a fifteen-year-old boy, out of juvenile court so he can also be charged as an adult.

Some Colorado school districts are trying to improve their indoor air quality to reduce the chance of students and staff catching coronavirus. HEPA air filters in classrooms, more efficient ventilation systems and even ultraviolet light are some of the technologies on the table. Schools hope to offer a more stable schedule for students by keeping classrooms in person once kids return for the semester.
