Environmental degradation is a concern that all nations share.
The Asian longhorned beetle is a serious pest that attacks hardwood trees, potentially killing entire forests. This in turn creates long-term damage to our environment. This insect is chewing its way through some neighborhoods in the U.S. city of Chicago, Illinois. On this quiet street, residents are fighting a losing battle against the Asian longhorned beetle which is killing trees. Officials expect that some travel to Chicago in wood-packing crates from China.
