Indiana University students gather in front of the campus Central Heating Plant to launch a Sierra Club campaign to close IU’s coal plant and replace it with clean energy. For years, efforts to reduce pollution emissions from the plant have been stymied by funding issues. Recently two coal boilers were replaced with gas, and the remaining two coal boilers were fitted with filters to reduce emissions, but Sierra Club activists say that's not good enough as we go on-location to the Central Heating Plant. EcoReport is a weekly program providing independent media coverage of environmental and ecological issues with a focus on local, state and regional people, issues, and events in order to foster open discussion of human relationships with nature and the Earth and to encourage you to take personal responsibility for the world in which we live.
