Where are they now?

A look at what past festival partners have been up to. 

 

Do you remember the Sierra Club Hoosier Chapter's event on climate risk in our 2013 festival? Four months later the Sierra Club continues their "Beyond Coal" movement as they encourage Indiana's 'journey' from coal to clean energy. The Sierra Club is currently challenging the extension of a permit for a proposed $2.8 billion coal-gasification plant in southern Indiana, continuing Indiana's journey toward cleaner air!
