Local Events Across Iowa
DFIA Co-sponsors Global Warming Discussion in Davenport
Sunday, June 13th: Global Warming Discussion.
The discussion will be held from 3-5pm at the Unitarian Church in
Davenport, 3707 Eastern Ave. The guest speaker will be Dr. Laura
Hechtel, a biology instructor from Rivermont Collegiate in Bettendorf.
This will hopefully open a much needed discussion about this world-wide
problem and how each one of us contributes to it. The discussion is
sponsored by DFIA Environmentalist Molly Regan's environmental group,
IECAN (Independent Environmental Conservation & Activism Network),
QC Action and Democracy for Iowa (that's us!). Please contact
Molly at IOWAvolunteer@mchsi.com for further information.
