Tree Cop
Special | 7m 5s
In Wisconsin spends the day with an interesting watchdog, the "Tree Cop."
They call him the "Tree Cop." Jim Kringer's official title is Urban Forestry Inspector for the City of Milwaukee. During his 30-year tenure, Kringer has helped create one of the nation's top tree inspection programs. The result: A lush urban forest that saves homeowners and taxpayers an estimated $21 million a year in cooling costs, pollution abatement, and groundwater treatment.
