Cultivando is a community-based organization focused on health equity and changing policies. For the past year, the group has partnered with a handful of scientists to research air quality related to the communities surrounding the Suncor Refinery in Commerce City.
The research included varying presentations, including one focused on the pollutants and where they are located, another detailing the social and environmental justice impacts, and one that examined the health impacts of poor air quality. More information about the program, including detailed air quality data analysis reports, are available at www.ccnd-air.com [can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com] in English and in Spanish.
The state's Commerce City-North Denver specific web page has more information on environmental factors influencing the health of the communities near Suncor Refinery.
