For my last institutional editorial of the summer semester, I wrote about how Athens is slated to receive federal stimulus money to retrofit its buses to make them more environmentally friendly.
One of our reporters found that the buses in Athens now emit a particulate that causes cancer in about one in 3,800 people — when the Environmental Protection Agency's acceptable level is one in a million. It's a really interesting story and I'm personally happy the city will be getting the money to help all who live here breathe a little easier.
