BALTIMORE, Md. (WMAR) — Climate change is a global issue, but in Baltimore City it’s also a neighborhood problem.
Scientists already blame global warming for a variety of issues from
melting icebergs, to rising sea levels and a declining polar bear
population.
WMAR 2 News, in a collaboration with the University of Maryland’s
Howard Center for Investigative Journalism and Capital News Service,
explores a different kind of threat that’s a lot closer to home.
Climate change has had a direct impact on Baltimore neighborhoods.
The group found it can also have a direct effect on some people’s health and safety, and much of it depends upon your zip code.
It’s something a few neighbors said they hadn’t thought about until now.
Baltimore’s McElderry park neighborhood has a unique distinction.
Neighbor Solomon Simmons said “this is the hottest spot in Maryland,
east Baltimore, and it has a lot to do with the lack of trees.”
These are the Nut jobs you elect to run things...
