Last update: 3 hours ago

Coal-plant legal fight: Sierra Club and Earthjustice argued in federal court against the Trump administration’s “energy emergency” orders that keep Michigan’s J.H. Campbell coal plant running past retirement, a move they say is driving up power bills. Air quality enforcement: EGLE is set to fine GM $50,000 over problems with air-cleaning equipment at its Lansing plant, where VOC emissions were still below limits but maintenance fell short. PFAS + data centers: A new report flags PFAS contamination risks tied to AI data-center expansion and herbicide facilities, with regulators investigating. Lake Michigan cleanup tech: Volunteers and Milwaukee Riverkeeper deployed a beach robot that sifts sand for microplastics at Klode Park. Spring health watch: Pediatricians report rising asthma and allergy symptoms for kids as pollen and lingering viruses overlap. Local stewardship wins: Traverse City schools hit 100% Michigan Green Schools certification, earning environmental designations across every building.
