New Report: Pollution Up 35% in Iowa since 1990


EnvironmentIowa.org

Environment Iowa will release a new analysis of government data today on trends in carbon dioxide from fossil fuel consumption in Iowa and nationally from 1990 to 2007.  This is the first time the 2006 and 2007 state data have been released.  The report comes as Congress moves to consider a major energy and global warming bill and as EPA considers the first-ever federal rules to cut global warming pollution from tailpipes and smokestacks, the two biggest culprits.

When:  10 am, Thursday, November 12, 2009

Where:  Kouba Building, 1014 Third St. SE, Cedar Rapids
