RELEASE MONTH
Through oversized logos on wind turbines and glossy flyers sent with their monthly bills, Iowans have been led to believe that their energy is clean. But in reality, MidAmerican Energy operates five coal plants across the state, part of the dirtiest coal fleet in the country.
Iowa's Dirty Secret: The True Cost of Burning Coal is a short film that examines the cost of coal through first-hand accounts shared by families who live near the coal plants, doctors who have seen the health impacts of coal pollution, and the advocates fighting for something better.
We requested an interview with MidAmerican Energy's President and CEO. They denied our request, instead providing a written statement.
We requested an interview with the Chair of Berkshire Hathaway Energy. They never responded.
