Local Environmental News Rating System
As environmental news grows on the Internet, I will rate local and non-local media
sources as to how well they keep us informed about our Rochester environment.
The best source for local
environmental news on the Internet, focuses on Rochester, New York, including an archive,
a complete monitoring of our environment with updates on major environmental issues, and
links to any subject that pertains to issues important to our area.
A local news service that provides
consistent environmental news, focuses on Rochester, well-written, but does not archive
environmental news and only presents issues when a story flares up.
A local, or non-local, news service
that occasionally posts an environment news story, not very complete, but provides a good
resource for getting environmental news on Rochester and some useful services.
A local news service that rarely posts an environmental news story.
A local news service that needs to
pay attention to our environment.
