Iowa 

• Blog for Iowa 
• Iowa Go Green : The philosophy about IowaGoGreen.com is simple, we know earth day is 365 days a year; it is not just a focus one day or week in April. We also believe that Iowans inherently want to do the right thing, to make even the smallest impact on our communities and planet so we want to help that along. We know that negative environmental messages aren’t helpful, don’t just talk about the problems but how we can help.

  Environment Iowa We all want clean air, clean water and open spaces. But it takes independent research and tough-minded advocacy to win concrete results for our environment, especially when powerful interests stand in the way of environmental progress. That’s the idea behind Environment Iowa. We focus exclusively on protecting Iowa’s air, water and open spaces. We speak out and take action at the local, state and national levels to improve the quality of our environment and our lives.

• Iowa Alliance for Wind Innovation and Novel Development

  Iowa Bicycling Coalition The Iowa Bicycle Coalition is a state-wide non profit promoting Iowa bicycling as safe and enjoyable recreation and transportation.  We work to teach bicycle safety practices, encourage safe routes to schools, and better transportation system development for bicycling.

• Des Moines Ladies Group T he Ladies Alternative Connection group was established by Melanie Schmidt in November of 2007.  The primary goal was to create an open and non judgemental forum for ladies to share ideas and tips; different and alternative options to typical issues and topics are key parts of the discussion. The desire is that each lady determines which ideas, alternative options, and/or tips are worth trying and conducive to her family.
