Almost the entire cover article on Wind in Sierra Magazine
March/April describes Iowa’s successes. Don’t miss it. The set of
articles on wind has great talking points. You will want to carry a copy
along with you to meetings.
David Osterberg is mentioned, however it does not appear the
writers/researchers interviewed anyone from the Iowa Chapter. The Nebraska
Chapter is almost mentioned.
Let me also urge you to read the cover story on Fracking in
the March issue of National Geographic. While it suffers from the writer’s
attention to a single woman trucker, it covers diverse issues and mentions most
of the problems. I learned that my own efforts to push the Missouri River
Recovery committee to look into fracking’s effect on the endangered pallid
sturgeon is quite justified. Most of the activity is found along the
Missouri in the reach of the river where pallid recovery is possible.
