Go Green Press Conference with Mike Love of the Beach Boys

Fairfield Iowa is the home to one of the most progressive efforts to create a sustainable community in the United States. In a press conference held last September, Mayor Ed Malloy emphasized the timeliness of this event. “This theme of energy independence is on the lips of everyone. We understand why we have to get there. It’s important for reasons of National security. It’s important for creating a sustainable future for our children, and our grand children, and beyond.” “Something good is definitely happening in terms energy independence and sustainability in Iowa, and in Fairfield specifically” says Mike Love of the Beach Boys. “The Heartland of America is perfectly positioned to lead the world in this energy independence movement. So, go green Fairfield!” Live interviews with concert producer David Lynch Foundation, Fairfield’s Mayor Ed Malloy, and a host of leaders in sustainability from the SE Iowa region will delve into details of the massive effort to provide solutions and education in twenty-three (23) SE Iowa counties. The outreach is part of a pubic-private-partnership between Iowa State University Extension, the City of Fairfield Iowa’s Commission on Sustainability, and a multitude of private citizens all working to create a sustainable future for Iowa and the world.
