Cleaning Up Indiana's Waterways

A recently released  report from a national environmental group says Indiana's coal-fired power plants release high quantities of mercury that can pollute rivers, lakes and streams.

Environmental groups and policy makers are working together to find ways to clean up this kind of pollution. This week on Noon Edition, we’ll talk about the state of Indiana’s waterways.

Join us Friday at 12 p.m for our conversation. You can visit this site to be part of our live chat, follow us on Twitter  @NoonEdition, or join us on the air by calling in at  812-855-0811 or 1-877-285-WFIU.
