As we speak, the City of Detroit is beautifying the hippest corners of the city for big events like the upcoming NFL draft. We need the same scale and dedication to building beautiful and resilient neighborhoods, and we needed it yesterday.
Corporate media and billionaire owners shape much of the news landscape. Meanwhile, disinformation and dwindling local coverage leave communities in the dark.
Planet Detroit is different. Readers, not shareholders, power us—delivering fact-based, independent reporting on climate, health, and the environment. No paywalls. No outside influence. Just journalism that puts you first.
If you value our work, please consider supporting our nonprofit newsroom. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference—and takes less than a minute. Thank you.
