#SpotlightOnCLT: TreesCharlotte


Written by Sarah Fligel

When newcomers arrive to Charlotte, one of the first things many notice are the trees. Just a stroll down Queens Road West will have you looking up for multiple miles. We are a city with plenty of green, boasting a tree canopy – or the area shaded by trees – of 45 percent. But that number is shrinking much faster than TreesCharlotte would like. 

#SpotlightOnCLT: Environment / Renewable Energy


Air and water pollution, global warming, and wildfires are just a few of the environmental issues that we are facing right now as a globe.

The GOOD news is that there are nonprofits working every day not only to protect and improve our environment here locally, but to go the step further and educate our community about the importance of being environmentally conscious. Small changes at a local level can lead to a bigger impact for our globe if communities around the world all do their part. So, let’s do ours.
