16 hours ago - NewsColorado predicted to have a warmer, drier winterNOAA; Map: Kavya Beheraj/Axios; Data: NOAA; Map: Kavya Beheraj/AxiosThe return of La Niña for the second straight year means winter in Colorado will bring warmer temperatures and less precipitation than normal, according to a new forecast by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.Why it matters: Dry conditions have fueled some of Colorado's most devastating wildfires, including last year's East Troublesome blaze, which raged for more than a month and destroyed nearly 194,000 acres.Zoom in: Almost the entire state is expected to see above-average temperatures this winter.Drought across the Western Slope and northern part of the state is expected to worsen, while regions without dry spells, including southeast Colorado, will see water shortages develop.Mountain snowpack during La Niña varies, but experts say to expect fewer major snowstorms. NOAA; Map: Will Chase/AxiosThe big picture: Severe-to-exceptional drought continues to dominate the western half of the country — a problem largely caused by climate change.A 2020 study published in the journal Science found that climate change made drought conditions more severe between 2000 and 2018 in western North America than almost any other drought in the region since the year 800.

Ten years ago, many people didn’t realize LinkedIn would become a ubiquitous social media platform, but today, the platform has over 774 million members worldwide. Every second, 81 hopeful job candidates submit applications. Even more impressive, four applicants are hired through the platform every minute. That’s a lot of business professionals connecting in one place. While this social media platform has nearly endless potential for promoting business growth, many businesses make LinkedIn a low priority, thinking it’s only for individuals trying to find a job. I recently met with Josh Steimle, author of “60 Days to LinkedIn Mastery,” to discuss the levels of growth LinkedIn makes possible for businesses. Steimle explains, “Not only is LinkedIn the largest professional networking platform in the world, and it’s still growing. Mastering this platform right now is the key to becoming a thriving brand in the business world of the future.” Build Brand Credibility By Becoming a Thought Leader A major aspect of building a business is establishing brand credibility …You need people to believe that you are the expert in your field. Says Steimle, “Building a strong presence on LinkedIn is all about thought leadership. When you share useful information that people can’t…

Inclusion has become an increasingly important focus over the past few years, which has changed the way that brands communicate, and how marketing messages should be framed, often through simple language shifts. It’s an important consideration – according to a recent report from Facebook, only 41% of consumers feel represented in the ads that they see, while younger generations, in particular, are increasingly looking to align with businesses that show an awareness of social issues, and a willingness to align with cultural shifts. As such, this new guide from LinkedIn could be a valuable companion, with its 7-page ‘Inclusive Language’ pocket guide offering some important points to consider in formulating your brand messaging. The guide outlines the key elements of an inclusive language approach, and the importance of being considerate in your messaging. As per LinkedIn: “We define inclusive language as that which does not exclude or stereotype people based on race, sexual orientation, age, gender identity, ability, socioeconomic status, or any other characteristic. In other words, it’s about making your brand feel welcoming and accessible to all.” The guide raises some interesting points of consideration, many of which you likely never considered. These are more subtle forms of gendered…
