Valley Coal Plant and Environmental Justice

We Energies' Valley Coal Plant is the site of one of the most visible environmental justice campaigns in Milwaukee - and indeed one of the few at which the term "environmental justice" has been actively used. It is also still active - they hosted a big public meeting in December 2011, and it probably won't be the last.

Here are some sites to help you get started:

The Cleaner Valley Campaign - this blog is a fantastic place to start. There's a lot of information here (indeed, even plenty of data to analyze), and you'll find links to the various partners involved in the campaign. The partnership list will give you some clues about the key constituents who are concerned about their issue. 

Also recommended: join their Facebook page - still more good links here, and this is a great way to keep track of what they might be doing this spring.
