Have a Haven – Project Greenprint – Episode 1

Michigan’s in a bit of an odd place. It’s considered a climate haven, a place that can protect people from the worst of climate change. But its literal havens—our homes—are causing problems. They’re old, expensive, elusive and, in fact, causing climate change. In Episode 1 of our four-part Project Greenprint miniseries, Crain’s Detroit Business reporter (and Detroiter) Nick Manes joins us to talk about the state of housing and how it serves as both a problem and a solution to our state.
