As Earth continues to get hotter, local scientists are asking what this will look like in Chicago. This past July, scientists led by Argonne National Laboratory turned to balloons to find out. They launched balloons into the sky from four different Chicago neighborhoods as part of a research project to look into how infrastructure traps heat in different parts of the city and creates “micro-climates.” Reset learns more about heat in Chicago with WBEZ environment reporter Juanpablo Ramirez-Franco.
