"There is an urgency that I feel in my soul for faith-based climate action amidst policy rollbacks, environmental threats, and growing social injustice. How do we start? We start by putting one foot in front of the other."

Schools, churches, retirement homes, and parks are within 10 miles of MidAmerican’s Walter Scott Jr. coal plant, which emitted 4,000 tons of NOx pollution in 2023 alone. It’s time for MidAmerican to get real about the impacts of burning coal. #CleanUpMidAm

[Clean Up MidAm @CleanUpMidAm]

“If coal was a food, the FDA would have banned it years ago. There is no conflicting research, no unclear science: Coal is poisonous, yet it ends up in our groundwater which means it ends up in the water we drink and the food we eat.” #CleanUpMidAm https://t.co/0dL9orU9CK

All of MidAmerican’s coal plants are located along rivers that our communities rely on for drinking water. In Ottumwa, that means coal ash is sitting just 1/10th of a mile from the Des Moines River. #CleanUpMidAm

Communities like Sergeant Bluff, Salix, and Sloan are just a few miles away from MidAmerican’s George Neal plants. It’s time for MidAmerican to be honest about the impact of their coal pollution, and start transitioning to cleaner, more affordable alternatives. #CleanUpMidAm
