Environmental coverage that educates and empowers

Whether tied to a major public project or a few neighborhoods, environmental issues touch all of us, and our health, safety or wallets may be at stake. And that is why The News has added a reporter, Mackenzie Shuman to cover the environment and climate in the Buffalo Niagara region. We want to help readers connect the dots and answer the question “Why should I care?” when it comes environmental and climate issues.
