Iowa Environmental Council Day at the Capitol, Des Moines, IA

The Iowa Environmental Council organizes an annual day at the capital for its members to talk to legislators about important environmental issues. Trees Forever is a member organization of the Iowa Environmental Council, and plans to participate in this event. Staff will likely talk to legislators about their work to assist disaster-impacted communities in replanting efforts, as well as the post-flood buffer landowner survey results. This event provides a good opportunity for staff to directly engage elected officials.
