WFPL News is examining air pollution in Louisville's West End, and how it affects those living in close proximity to Rubbertown. The first nine segments will air in January, with help from the California Endowment Health Journalism Fellowships, and will continue throughout the year.
Starting this week, WFPL will begin airing a month-long series about past and present air pollution in the city’s Rubbertown neighborhood, and the health effects for those who live nearby. Installments will air during Morning Edition, Here and Now and All Things Considered every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and will be posted here on Smokestack when they air.
