E-bikes play a key role in the future of clean transportation. Our new post explores four ways cities are removing the obstacles keeping more people from making the switch from cars to the environmentally friendly e-bike. frontiergroup.org/articles/four-…

Green spaces are essential to our physical and mental health. In cities, they also provide “third spaces” - places for people to gather and build stronger communities. Read about the health benefits of open spaces in our new article. frontiergroup.org/articles/the-h…

Did you know that the smell of “fresh air” is from airborne compounds called phytoncides, which help our bodies fight illness and boost our immune system? This is just one of many ways that nature is good for our health. frontiergroup.org/articles/the-h…

Having access to green spaces can boost cardiovascular health, reduce feelings of isolation, and deliver an array of other benefits. Sarah Collier unpacks the ways green spaces make us happier and healthier in her new short piece. frontiergroup.org/articles/the-h…

Weather-related disasters cost the United States $182 B in 2024, and costs have steadily been on the rise, straining private insurance markets in a growing number of states. Learn more about how the challenge is affecting the Midwest in our new article: frontiergroup.org/articles/the-h…

From Hawaii to Maine, aging sewer systems, urban runoff and other pollution sources often leave our beaches unsafe for swimming. It's a big problem, but one we can do something about. Our new report includes data on the risks and the solutions. frontiergroup.org/resources/safe…

In Nebraska, homeowner's insurance costs double the national average - approaching $6,500 a year for a $300K home. Climate-driven insurance risks aren't just an issue for coastal states - they're a concern in the Midwest, too. Our new post has more: frontiergroup.org/articles/the-h…

Humans thrive when we are outdoors, yet we spend 90% of our time indoors. Biophilic infrastructure aims to redesign cities and buildings to reconnect us with the natural world. Read more about inspiring examples in the U.S. and around the world. frontiergroup.org/articles/desig…

Biophilia and nature-based infrastructure weaves nature into our homes, hospitals, and cities, creating more pleasant places with less environmental impact. Learn about the principles of biophilic design in our most recent article: frontiergroup.org/articles/desig…

The USDA has announced its intention to rescind the 2001 Roadless Rule protecting millions of acres of forest across the country. This move would have disastrous consequences for vast swathes of the American landscape, as James Horrox explains: frontiergroup.org/articles/resci…

For almost a quarter of a century, the Roadless Area Conservation Rule has protected millions of acres of forest across the country from logging and development. Now, the USDA is rescinding it. The impacts will be dire, as analyst James Horrox explains frontiergroup.org/articles/resci…
