Infused with

GREENSPACE A former chemical plant could become a greenhouse space under a new proposal

When a plan emerged at city hall to move Wausau Chemical from its then spot along the Wisconsin River north of downtown to the city’s industrial area on the west side, one of the selling points from city leaders was that it was part of an overarching plan to transform a former industrial area along the river into much better uses.

A new proposal for the former chemical plant site, at 180 E. Wausau Avenue, purports to do just that. Mathew and Kristen Aschbrenner are proposing to build a greenhouse, event space and infused drinks facility on the north side site.

Called “Infused,” it would transform one-third of the building into a greenhouse much like the biodomes in Milwaukee on a smaller scale, Aschbrenner says, with lowered ceilings and lighting fixtures and vines. That space would also serve as a public space for weddings, graduations and other events.

The other two-thirds of the building would transform into hydroponics space

for growing herbs and mints, Aschbrenner says. It would also contain a distillation apparatus that would diffuse the herbs and mints into tinctures that could be made into teas and mocktails.

Besides selling fresh-cut herbs and mints, customers could come enjoy a cup of tea or mocktail (a non-alcoholic cocktail) as an alternative to a coffee house.

Aschbrenner told the city’s Economic Development Committee Tuesday that he has plans to transform the building into a quasi-industrial look, with native vines growing on the sides of the building. They hope to use renewable energy such as solar panels, Tesla walls and recycled water runoff to create a neutral energy building.

According to packet materials, Aschbrenner is proposing to purchase the building for $40,000 from the city, and plans to invest $250,000 into its transformation. No city incentives are being requested.

Aschbrenner is part owner and physician at the Eye Clinic of Wisconsin.

Lincoln County man acquitted in baby’s death A Lincoln County man accused in the death of his baby son was found not guilty by a jury last week.

Henry Hughes, 26, was accused in 2016 of causing the death of his infant son after bringing the baby to the hospital. Hughes told hospital workers that the baby had been choking and he had been unable to make it stop, but police said medical experts said the baby died of brain bleeding.

A jury trial in Lincoln County started May 20, and on June 1 a jury found Hughes not guilty of first-degree reckless homicide and of child abuse — recklessly causing harm to a child. A cash bond of $5,000 was refunded to Hughes.

Marathon County receives grant for child care A grant that could help change child care in Marathon County has been approved for the area.

The grant, called Dream Up! and administered through the state Department of Children and Family Services, provides funding of $75,000 toward strategic planning around child care shortages. The program also offers $5,000 stipends to child care providers who submit a business plan to the program.

A City Pages’ data analysis revealed the county has lost more than half of its child care providers since 2012, while costs have continued to rise. Providers are struggling with finding qualified workers to work at their facilities, exasperating the problem.

Marathon County partnered up with a total of 19 stakeholders, including other municipalities and business leaders, to apply for the grant. The county was one of 30 applicants to be awarded the grant, which comes from a pool of $8.1 million.

Lincoln County Social Services was also awarded a grant, in the fall 2022 cohort; Marathon County was awarded in the Spring 2022 cohort.

No more filters for Wausau PFAS, city engineer says No more filters will be provided to residents outside the pitcher and two filters the city initially gave to residents, the city’s public

works director says. But the city’s mayor says more could be coming.

According to an email exchanged between Eric Lindman and former city council member Deb Ryan, no more filters will be provided to filter out PFAS. Lindman, in his email to Ryan, said the two filters were provided to give residents time to develop their own replacement schedule.

The city provided filters and bottled water through the use of pandemic relief funds earlier this year in response to the city discovering levels of PFAS exceeding new state standards in all six of its drinking water wells. City leaders have been working on solutions to the PFAS problem, including running a pilot study to find the best filtration system to add to the new drinking water treatment plant to filter PFAS. Numerous municipalities have been testing their own water since to see if their PFAS levels exceed the new standards promoted by the Department of Natural Resources and the Department of Health Services. Weston recently shut down one of its wells again because testing revealed higher than standard PFAS levels.

The exchange comes as city council member Tom Kilian received a letter from the Department of Health Services confirming its public stance that residents should limit exposure to Wausau’s water until PFAS levels can be properly filtered to safe levels.

Mayor Katie Rosenberg says Lindman’s comments were technically correct at the moment, as no more money has been appropriated for additional filters. But city council members have been asking that the topic come up on a future finance committee agenda, so more filters could still be in the works, Rosenberg told City Pages.

Great Dane planning brewpub in Japanese resort The Great Dane Brewing Co. announced an expansion and the new location might surprise you: Japan.

The brewpub chain, which has several locations in the Madison area and one in Wausau, announced last week that they would be opening a location in Akiu Onsen, a resort in the Sendai City. The resort is located about two hours outside of central Tokyo.

Onsens are resorts built around hot

Leak found in Weston pool prior to opening Weston officials found a leak in the Weston Aquatic Center roughly two weeks prior to the pool opening, officials told City Pages.

The leak, which was found in the drain system under the pool, is leaking around 20,000 gallons per day, Weston Village President Mark Maloney told City Pages.

That’s about 1/16 of the pools water every day. Maloney told City Pages that a diver had inspected the leak last week.

Finding people to work on the pool has been difficult, Maloney says, because so many pools are opening both in cities and people’s residences.

The pool opened last Saturday and had good attendance. Maloney says he hopes the pool can be repaired with a sleeve. If

the pool has to be drained to reset the concrete, the pool could be down most of the summer.

North Central Health Care hired Gary Olsen as the health care organization’s finance director, NCHC officials confirmed to City Pages.

Gary Olsen, who Gary Olsen , former was hired as Roths- Rothschild Administrator, is child’s administra- now the finance director of tor in 2017, began North Central Health Care. the position on May 31, NCHC Communications Director Jessica Meadows told City Pages. Olsen began orientation this week, Meadows says.

Olsen was hired under new interim director Mort McBain, who once served as Marathon County Administrator. McBain was hired as interim director after the county switched to a more direct-governance approach to the three-county health care organization. NCHC was formed to handle medical services counties are required to provide under state law.

Olsen was hired in May of 2017, almost exactly five years ago, as the village’s first administrator. Prior to that many of those duties were handled by Village President George Peterson.

springs in Japan. Some onsens resemble a mix of water parks and spas. The Akiu Onsen is known for being located near gorgeous waterfalls.

The idea for the resort location came from Great Dane cofounder Rob LeBreglio, who previously worked as a consultant in Japan. LeBreglio will serve as CEO and Brewmaster of the Sendai brewpub.

“This is a dream come true. I get to work alongside some great people and close friends who are so dedicated to strengthening the craft beer industry in Japan,” LoBreglio said in a press release. “Along with featuring current Great Dane beers, we plan to create a range of new beers.

The TRUST debate Opposing party chairs debate who is at fault over mistrust in elections

Republican Party of Wisconsin Chair Paul Farrow blames the Wisconsin Elections Commission for a lack of trust in elections, while state Dem Party Chair Ben Wikler argues former President Trump’s “propaganda” campaign is at fault.

The two at a WisPolitics.com Madison Club luncheon Thursday debated why many Wisconsinites have lost faith in how the state manages elections. Farrow said the lack of leadership coming out of WEC during the pandemic meant many clerks were left without guidance during one of the most challenging times to hold an election. He added bureaucracy took hold of WEC when commissioners should have been issuing guidance.

“What I need is a governing body that knows their responsibility, enforces the statutes, doesn’t let the bureaucracy say ‘we’re going to do whatever we want to do because you guys can’t get it together out there,’” he said. “That’s what we need.”

Wikler argued many voters have lost faith in the elections, or at least questioned election integrity, only because Trump attempted to have hundreds of thousands of ballots thrown out after it became clear President Joe Biden won the 2020 election.

“The issue is not the Elections Commission,” he said. “The issue is an intentional, prolonged propaganda campaign by someone who refuses to acknowledge the reality that he lost and people who are afraid of

being primaried.”

The news comes as WEC is working through its chair selection process where Republican Bob Spindell will face Speaker Robin Vos’ appointment to replace Republican Dean Knudson after he abruptly stepped down from his position last week.

Vos also appointed Knudson.

The party chairs also hinted Wisconsin could see around $700 million in ad and campaign money between outside groups, campaigns and both parties.

Michels shares details on the Trump guv endorsement GOP candidate for governor Tim Michels says he talked to Donald Trump for three to four minutes ahead of his public endorsement, but the former president didn’t commit to campaigning for him ahead of the Aug. 9 primary.

“He didn’t say anything about that,” Michels said on WISN’s “UpFront,” which is produced in partnership with WisPoiltics. com. “He didn’t say whether he was going to come to Wisconsin or not. I didn’t ask him. I didn’t think it was my place to ask, ‘Are you coming or not?’ He’ll make up his own mind.”

Michels maintained his recent shift in positions about the Wisconsin Elections Commission, now calling for it to be eliminated, wasn’t related to Trump’s endorsement.

“It had nothing to do with that,” Michels said. “I took a hard look at WEC. I did my homework, and I realized it was unsalvageable. We will come up with something better and improved.”

Michels said he would not support putting Wisconsin’s secretary of state in charge of elections.

Trump has insisted the 2020 election was stolen. When asked, Michels wouldn’t dispute that or say there was no widespread fraud as courts and election officials nationwide have upheld the election.

More than a dozen GOP incumbents in the Legislature, House and U.S. Senate drew primary challengers

Here are the federal races where GOP incumbents face challengers: *David Schroeder, of Milwaukee, filed nomination papers May 27 to challenge U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Oshkosh in the GOP primary. The Elections Commission found Schroeder had 2,778 signatures, more than the 2,000 needed for a statewide candidate. A Google search for details about Schroeder’s candidacy was unsuccessful. *Douglas Mullenix, of Menasha, filed to run against U.S. Rep. Glenn Grothman, R-Glenbeulah, in the 6th CD GOP primary. The commission found he had 1,301 signatures, more than the 1,000 needed for a congressional candidate. Mullenix wrote on his website he worked in finance

Meanwhile, longtime Secretary of State Doug La Follette is the only Dem incumbent to draw one and will face Alexia Sabor, chair of the Dane County Dem Party, in the Aug. 9 primary.

Trust Funding: Checking and Savings Accounts You should fund checking, savings, money market, and certificate of deposit (CD) accounts into your trust. You can achieve this by working with the bank or credit union where you have the accounts and providing them with a certification of trust that lists important information the financial institution will need to complete the retitling of those accounts.

Before retitling CDs into your trust, you should first check to make sure that no early withdrawal penalties will apply. If a penalty will apply, you may need to wait until those CDs mature and then make the transfer. In most cases, it is not necessary to have the bank issue new checks with the trust’s name on them.

Some credit unions look at a trust as a new member and require opening new accounts to make a transfer to a trust. In those situations, naming the trust as the payable on death beneficiary might be advisable.

Michels campaign argues nomination papers valid despite address error Tim Michels’ campaign is arguing signatures should be counted regardless of whether his nomination papers listed the village in which he lives or the municipality he uses as his mailing address.

Dems filed a challenge to hundreds of Michels’ signatures because some of his nomination papers list Chenequa rather than his mailing address of Hartland as required.

But in a response to the complaint yesterday, Michels’s attorney argued the address he listed meets the state requirements because he receives mail whether the address put down is Chenequa or

Hartland. Matthew Fernholz added the issue shouldn’t be fatal and his nomination papers substantially complied with state law.

“An order that ousts a candidate for failure to identify a mailing address’s municipality — notwithstanding the fact that the candidate provided an accurate mailing address at which he receives mail — unreasonably impairs the right of voters to associate and restricts the voters’ opportunity to cast a ballot for the candidate of their choice,” Fernholz argued.

Ahead of filing the response, Michels submitted an affidavit to the commission acknowledging his campaign used the wrong nomination form when gathering signatures to get him on the ballot. But he insisted the mistake was inadvertent.

Michels said the campaign uploaded a nomination form to be used that listed Chenequa as his address. He said the mistake wasn’t noticed until after nomination papers had been filed, adding there was no intent to deceive voters about where he lives.

The state Dem Party, which supported the challenge filed to Michels’ nomination papers over the issue, slammed him for using nomination papers that didn’t follow the law.

“Apparently millions of dollars couldn’t buy Michels a competent enough campaign operation able to comply with the absolute basics of the law,” said party Executive Director Devin Remiker. “The WEC should act accordingly to uphold election integrity laws and hold the Michels campaign accountable.”

Doggone it

By Evan J. Pretzer

Zoey the dog poses in the pet interaction room at the Humane Society of Marathon County. As the COVID-19 pandemic has receded, parts of the country like central Wisconsin have seen an influx of dogs in shelters and at local trainers for behavioral problems like separation anxiety.

Many got dogs to cure COVID isolation — but now shelters and trainers are seeing the impacts of those adoptions

Many people thought adopting a dog during the pandemic would be a great way to cure the isolation of being cramped up at home. But now, a number of those pets are ending up in shelters, or at trainers with behavior problems.

When COVID-19 first began to spread and force Americans inside, more than 23 million households ended up getting a dog from March 2020 through May 2021.

An American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) survey from last summer shows most of these (90 percent) are still living in homes, but behavioral problems and surrenders are popping up in pockets across the nation as people have returned to work. This is true in Marathon County as well, City Pages found.

That surge is not confined to just animal shelters. Dog trainers are seeing a major influx of new dog owners bringing dogs with behavior problems they didn’t have the knowledge to address on their own.

“People thought they were doing the

right thing,” Cindy Steinke of K-9 Elementary in Weston said. “But what happened is now they have a dog which first of all, they never socialized, they never trained them and most importantly they never left them. I’m very busy. What I am seeing now is I am booking out my group classes into August. It is a tough situation. I feel for the people, but I feel more for the dogs, through no fault of their own they are scared and panicked.”

Separation anxiety when left alone is a common behavior in all kinds of dogs and the ASPCA said in an emailed report this will be a given as pre-pandemic life returns. They recommend giving a dog practice with short periods of alone time each day, rotating a dog’s toys to keep them busy and going to a trainer, behaviorist or veterinary behaviorist in an extreme situation.

The latter options are not as available to all as they have been in the past as inflation has grown more than 8 percent in the past 12 months, according to the United

States Department of Labor. Steinke says this does not mean a dog is beyond help and hope. For her, getting an animal acquainted with the world around them is important.

“Socialization is critical,” she said. “It doesn’t mean you have to go out and have people touching your dog. You need to get them out and around different stimulations, around people, not necessarily close to people, but around people. There is no fairy dust, it takes a lot of effort.”

When this activity does not produce

desired effects sometimes people abandon their dogs, or give them to friends or family. Sometimes they’re returned or sent to the shelter for the first time. The Humane Societies of Portage and Lincoln County have not experienced any influxes of surrendered dogs, but more have come through the doors of the Humane Society of Marathon County lately. There are over 35 dogs at the shelter as of May compared to the 15-20 they typically see. Lisa Leitermann, the executive director for the facility, says the surge has been over the

Abby wasn’t exactly a pandemic dog. I adopted her from a coworker late in 2021, when life had (relatively speaking) returned to normal.

But like many people during the pandemic, I found myself a first-time dog owner. I thought long and hard about whether I wanted to own a dog. I considered the responsibilities involved and didn’t take them lightly. Because I knew if I adopted her, baring some really extreme circumstances I considered it a permanent decision.

I’d already gotten to know Abby, who is the sweetest dog I’ve ever met. She’d often be in the office when she belonged to our coworker, and I’d volunteered to walk her to get myself out of the office.

I work from home a lot now, and I couldn’t stand the thought of Abby going to a stranger and who knows what circumstances. So I made the decision to adopt her.

I learned very quickly that many people in real life and online have strong opinions about how to raise a dog and not all of them are correct or work. When I started every walk consisted of Abby either biting her leash or pulling it, so that was my first battle to overcome. And let me tell you, she is one strong dog. Not a great combination during the winter, that’s for sure.

Training a dog for the first time is a daunting task. And I discovered not all advice is created equal. One cure for leash-biting is to give them treats to distract them away from biting it. That just led to Abby biting her leash to get a treat.

Back to the drawing board.

What worked? Eventually (and I must really emphasize “eventually”) I figured out what worked was to keep her on a very short leash, forcing her to walk next to me, and when she bites her leash or puts her paw on it, to keep walking. I was careful not to look at her; the attention rewards the behavior.

Slowly but surely she stopped pulling, and biting would reduce to just at the start and end of our walks.

And then, it disappeared almost all together.

Now when we walk, the leash makes a nice U shape. My neighbors commented recently at how much progress we’ve made.

There’s still a lot we’re working on. Learning to train a dog is learning to train yourself. I’m certainly no expert and am working on absorbing more information, from people with far more experience than me and from books. I’ve recently been absorbing one of the books from the Monks of New Skeet. They’re a monastery in upstate New York who breed and raise German Shepherds, and many swear by them. After multiple suggestions I finally picked the book up.

There are some lessons to learn from dog training.

I’ve heard the phrase “choose your hard” before — dog training fits that category perfectly. It is definitely tempting sometimes to simply finish the walk instead of stopping to correct certain behaviors. But you know in the long run you’ll be better off.

Thankfully Abby is a very patient golden retriever, and continues to love me as we figure it all out together.

the news could be dependent on the size of a place the animals are having trouble in.

“Marathon County is the largest county in Wisconsin,” Galle-Teske said. “It could be the more people you have, the larger the shelter should be. I do feel the pain of everyone who has all these animals. We have been very lucky we have not faced any of the issues like other shelters have.”

Great and hard work is being done, but Sean Dumais of Central Wisconsin K-9 in Schofield says it’s a lengthy battle to make life better for dogs so they do not have significant problems.

“We need to stop the root causes,” he said. “Once it gets to the rescue and shelter side, we’re band-aiding an issue which really needs to be addressed long before it ever could become one. There are very few trying to get legislation passed which makes backyard breeding illegal, which makes dumping dogs a crime. I’m currently working with legislators to get something going.”

Those interested in adopting a dog or cat from the Humane Society of Marathon County can visit the facility Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Saturday from 12 – 5 pm, Thursday from 12 – 7 pm. It is closed Sundays, Wednesdays and on holidays.

Its available animals can be seen online.

As well, those looking to help animals be flown out of one state and into another can donate to groups like Pilots N Paws, Animal Rescue Flights and Dog is My CoPilot of Wyoming, too.

last six to eight months and the bump is hard to battle with.

“It is a lot of upkeep for staff,” Leitermann said. “It is a lot of stress on the dogs when the population stays that high. It is definitely something you take home with you and you think about. You try to be creative about getting the public in here and getting these animals adopted.”

In this area and animal behavior things are faring better for the shelter at the moment. There have been no problems of an irregular nature with dogs which have come in, homes are being found on a daily basis, but keeping an adequate staff is a struggle. Leitermann notes the space is a non-profit and so wages can’t necessarily compete with other places. She says only 20 volunteers come in regularly out of their pool of 150. Leitermann is used to this, but hopes changes lessen the load in the future.

“It is part of the landscape here, there is always more work than there are people,” she said. “It benefits our staff if we do have scheduled positions, people who almost do treat it like a job and commit to weekly shifts. This is not something we expected but we are working towards this.”

For now, the surge is staying in places like Florida, Texas and Kentucky. The ASPCA does note it is okay if a match does not work out and, for Sherri Galle-Teske, the executive director of the Humane Society of Portage County, there is no solid answer to stop it. Much of what may be making

CiTY PAGES

June 9-16, 2022

It might come as a surprise that liking Star Trek did not make me popular in junior high.

This was in the 1990s, which was a very prolific era for Star Trek in general. At one point in the decade, new episodes of The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine and Voyager appeared on network television at different times. All three had a very different flavor, and I remember distinctly watching the debut of Star Trek: Voyager as I recorded it on a VHS tape. I think I still have that tape somewhere.

It was a great time to be a fan of Trek, except at school.

It kind of snuck up on me that we’re in an era of three Trek series again. Discovery has been airing since 2017, and Picard’s second season just dropped not that long ago. And now we have Strange New Worlds, which at least a couple of people have declared the best Trek spinoff.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is a prequel to the original Star Trek series, the cheesy but classic adventures of Kirk, Spock and “Bones.” Here Kirk is a mere lieutenant under Captain Christopher Pike, the captain of the Enterprise before Kirk (he was the captain of the Enterprise in the original pilot episode of the original series). Uhura is a mere cadet (an extremely promising one, but also one who isn’t sure if she belongs in Starfleet; of course we know that ultimately she decided she was). And Spock is a science officer though had apparently served as second in command at one point.

Also back is the Enterprise itself; the set designers managed to keep similar white/red aesthetics to the original series Enterprise but with a slick, Silicon Valley tech look to it. Even the communicators are modern tech reworkings of the familiar

black and gold flip-up design. (Super nerdy admission: I once had a Motorola V-60 cell phone that I bought two cases for, black and gold, so I could use the black bottom and gold top to make it look like a Star Trek communicator. I definitely never flipped it open and said “Scotty, two to beam up.” No siree.)

There are also a few new characters, since this is pre-Kirk-in-command. The new No. 1 is La’an, who we learn in episode four is a bit more interesting than they first let on. Hemmer is the ship’s blind engineer. And the ship’s doctor is Dr. M’Benga, who has his own secret.

Several Star Trek fans I spoke to didn’t like spinoff Discovery, which came out in 2017. Each said something about it not really feeling like Star Trek.

It could be that Discovery attempted to cash in on the saga-style storytelling trend, where each episode leads into the next to induce binging. I recall being a bit bored by the show. Other than a pretty cool opening sequence involving the Klingons, I can’t recall much about it at all.

Which probably isn’t a great sign.

Strange New Worlds seems to be a return to a more “alien of the week” style of Star Trek. Each episode is self-contained and is neatly wrapped up plotwise, while leaving just a hint of a great plot.

Like many Trek spinoffs, including Deep Space Nine and Voyager, I’d be willing to bet that larger story arcs will start to crop up. Both DS9 and Voyager turned into saga-based shows in their later seasons.

It’s likely the Captain Pike-led Enterprise will do so as well.

But for now, it’s almost a relief to have a show one can turn on for an hour and not try to remember everything that was going on the last time you watched it. Bring on that alien of the week.

stunts more ridiculous than what you already know Steve-O for, he did them all, and made a multimedia comedy show out of them. Not for kids, or the faint of heart. 7 pm and 9:30 pm. Tickets start at $36. Details at grandtheater.org.

Celebrating the diversity and history of cultivated plants grown for clothing, healing, and food, this exhibition features plants discovered on international travels, picked up at farmers’ markets, and plucked from the artists’ own gardens. The artworks created by American Society of Botanical Artists were selected for The New York Botanical Garden’s Fourth Triennial, devoted to biological diversity in cultivated utilitarian plants. As the artists studied their chosen plants to ensure faithful depictions, they learned about the history of cultivated varieties or the significance of wild relatives’ roles in yielding today’s fruits and vegetables.

Yesteryear’s redlining means environmental racism today areas, due to conditions brought on by environmental hazards. Such communities are much more likely to suffer from poor health and lower financial health and have less ability to cope with these effects, says Vivek Shandas, a professor of urban studies and planning at Portland State University studying the link between redlined communities and warmer temperatures.

In a nation grappling with discrimination, environmental justice efforts need to prioritize these marginalized communities. Some Democratic candidates have made climate change impacts on urban,

In order to ensure a fair and just world for all, we need to acknowledge and address mistakes of the past.

Racist policies from the 20th century have left minority communities disproportionately impacted by environmental pollution and global warming, researchers find. Through studies conducted nationwide, researchers have determined that urban neighborhoods historically “redlined” by the federal government suffer from higher levels of air pollution and tend to be several degrees warmer than nearby communities.

How did this happen? Following the Great Depression, the U.S. economy was faced with nationwide housing shortages.

The federal government stepped in and designed color-coded maps to help banks determine “safe” locations to insure mortgages. Minority neighborhoods—typically African-Americans and immigrants—were redlined to indicate high risk, while privileged white communities were favored for housing opportunities. Nine decades later, these communities continue to have lower income and suffer from deteriorating

infrastructure, making them more susceptible to environmental hazards.

Redlined communities were also targeted—and are still—for industrial development unlike the affluent suburbs nearby.

Overrun with manufacturing facilities, highways and warehouses, they face what is known as the “urban heat island” effect and suffer from warmer temperatures due to heat-trapping structures, pavement and cement. They also lack green infrastructure like trees and cooling canopy cover.

The policies of segregation that the U.S. followed “were so powerful that they determine the racial landscape of today,” says Richard Rothstein of the Economic Policy Institute and author of The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America. “…other neighborhoods are now unaffordable to them, [so they are] restricted to neighborhoods where there are fewer trees, where there is more heat.” Urban communities are often chosen for industrial developments, like pipelines and facilities with high-pollutant discharge, causing poorer living conditions and increased health risks.

Studies find that people living in redlined neighborhoods can have lifespans up to 30 years shorter than others in nearby

Dear EarthTalk: What do outdated federal housing mandates from the 1930s have to do with environmental justice today?
