Listen "How Sustainability Can Uplift a Neighborhood"
Episode Synopsis
Cincinnati’s South Cumminsville is a largely low-income African American neighborhood along the once polluted Mill Creek. Seventy-percent of people live within a block of property with possible contamination and asthma rates among children are high. A nonprofit organization is helping green it up through retrofits and near net-zero homes. Residents are hopeful and city leaders hope it can be replicated in other communities.Interview guests: Executive Director of WIN Sister Barbara Busch, President of the South Cumminsville Community Council Derrik Feagin, VP Council on Aging of Southwestern Ohio Ken Wilson and Cincinnati Vice Mayor Jan Michele Lemon-Kearney.Brick by Brick Website Feedback Survey
