Environmental Forum


Purpose: To educate the citizens of the Quad Cities about environmental issues and the science of Climate Change, and to work with other environmental advocates to build sustainability across our communities.

We welcome newcomers to our Forum. Contact Shirley to be placed on the monthly notification list.
