Just in time for World Wetlands Day, this week Indiana residents and concerned Audubon members and experts from across the state gathered at the Indiana Statehouse to advocate for expanded access for renewable energy and protections for Indiana’s wetlands and other precious natural resources to protect birds, other wildlife and people.
More than 20 Audubon members and policy experts met with nearly 50 elected officials – including Indiana Lieutenant Governor Suzanne Crouch – to share the important role that both wetlands and renewable energy play in reducing carbon emissions, contributing to economic growth, and ensuring that birds have healthy places to rest and nest. The day also included a speaking program, headlined by Rep. Mike Speedy (IN-R-90), who shared the importance of commonsense market-driven clean energy policies.
