This was yesterday, the 29th.
Blaze: Thousands of residents in Aspen, Colorado, are without heat after what authorities say was an “intentional attack” on local gas service.
According to a Tuesday report from ABC News, the temperature in Aspen is expected to fall to just 2 degrees Tuesday night.
Authorities say that the attack — “coordinated acts of vandalism” — took place Saturday night and impacted at least three area Black Hills Energy locations.
The outlet reported, “At one of the targeted sites, police said they found the words ‘Earth first’ scrawled, and investigators were looking into whether the self-described ‘radical environmental group’ Earth First! was involved.”
As work crews continued to restore gas service across the city, authorities began handing out electric-powered space heaters to residents without heat service on Tuesday as a storm is expected to roll in this week and dump an additional eight inches of snow on the region. more

Another 8” of snow, the Aspen residents should just think of it as 8” of insulation. There, doesn’t that make you all warm inside?
Huh. The California fires ended when Left Coast Dan moved from there to Colorado…which is now suffering from random explosions.
Probably just a coincidence.
If it was the Earth First people, I have horrible news for them: the earth ultimately wins – even without their help. In terms of environmental damage, the earth can cause mass devastation without any help, and then clean itself up. It changes its climate even without human involvement, and if humans ever disappear from the planet, the earth will reclaim all of the cities, roads, dams, and other man-made structures. The earth is pretty good at putting itself first without our assistance.
I think it is a good idea to do whatever we reasonably can to keep our place clean – but that’s for our own benefit. No matter what we do, we cannot destroy the earth or render it permanently uninhabitable. Actually, and while we can kill billions of people, I doubt we humans can make ourselves extinct – some people somewhere will likely survive even if we all drive SUVs to weapons depots and detonate every atomic weapon in existence or manufacture all sorts of plagues (Newsome and the Cuomos would probably still survive – those cockroaches). The earth is a pretty big place – someone once calculated that every human on earth can fit in an area the size of Texas at a population density of New York – and the earth is a bigger danger to humans than humans to the earth.
If its the Earth First maniacs, the rich Aspen liberals will, or should, be painfully reminded of the terrible result of the causes they support.
Catch the guilty party and handcuff them to trees out in the wilderness of Colorado. Let Mother Nature deliver their sentence.
Whut… no gas?
Maybe Eric Swalwel can give you some!
Just consider this yer contribution to reducing Global Warming all yous phony Aspen Liberals!
What Wyatt said!

Eat the rich, the lunatics are finally attacking their own wealthy liberals. These are anarchist groups, good luck thinking you can control them.
Somebody got a portable EMP device for Christmas and is out trying it on the meter mounted EFV’s in the neighborhood.
Crank up the windmills !
EARTH FIRST!
We’ll log the rest of the planets later.
Probing attack to calculate response. There will be more.
