Chicago, climate change puts the foundations of the city at risk

by admin

Chicago’s foundations undermined by climate change. The city born three centuries ago on the shores of Lake Michigan – the most populous in America after New York and Los Angeles, which owes its name to the smell of leeks (Shikaakwa then Frenchized in Checagou) grown in that area by the Potawatomi Indians, its first inhabitants – is increasingly at risk. Overlooking one of the largest expanses of fresh water in the world, it has arisen by grafting on an extraordinary geographical strangeness, developed on a kind of swamp, a watershed of vast hydrographic basins.
