Powering Iowa’s Future: Economics, Health, and Community in the Coal Transition

Join the Iowa Environmental Council for a conversation with Common Good Iowa Policy Analyst Sean Finn as they take a closer look at Iowa’s rapidly evolving energy landscape. Not long ago, coal supplied most of the state’s electricity. Today, it accounts for less than a quarter, underscoring a pivotal transition already underway.

Moderated by IEC Energy Policy Manager Raihan Rashidi, the discussion will explore:What this continued shift could mean for Iowa communities- examining the economic, health, and community impacts of coal alongside the opportunities of a renewable energy future.

The webinar will feature highlights from the new publication, “Coal Communities in Transition: A New Report from Common Good Iowa.”
