Suburban Chicago has greater tree canopy inequity than the city, study finds

Suburban Chicago has greater tree canopy inequity than the city, study finds
Great Lakes Echo
By Kyrmyzy Turebayeva Most Americans live in suburbs and beyond urban centers, but inequities in tree canopy distribution are primarily studied in major cities. However, a new study of the Chicago region found that the highest level of tree canopy inequity was in the suburbs.

Clean water advocates worry about data center impact on drinking water
Great Lakes Echo

Amidst growing public concerns about possible adverse climate effects of data centers, they say the lesser-known threat in stormwater runoff and waste could prove as dangerous.
