The Alliance is working to retire the region’s oldest coal plants, Four Corners Power Plant (FCPP) and San Juan Generating Station (SJGS), which have historically emitted 25 million tons of carbon dioxide per year. Prolonging coal operations at FCPP for 25 more years, as proposed, will put 258 million tons more carbon pollution into the air – equivalent to more than 54 million cars.
San Juan Citizens Alliance advocates for clean air, pure water, and healthy lands -- the foundations of resilient communities, ecosystems and economies in the San Juan Basin. In addition to working in both Colorado and New Mexico, we have long-standing partnerships with Navajo Nation advocates as members of the Nation often experience the brunt of climate and health impacts from the overwhelming amount of fossil fuel development in the Four Corners.
