Join us for SEJ's 33rd annual conference, hosted by the University of Pennsylvania! Mid-Atlantic journalists have much to share with you about their corner of the world: the huge national battle over fracking and LNG versus renewable energy, such as wind and solar; the paradox of a city that wants to be modern and future-facing but is held back by issues of poverty, environmental racism, infrastructure challenges and development problems; flooding and sea level rise; pollution and land management; and much more. Register now to get your choice of workshops and tours. Check out the draft agenda, sponsorship opportunities and snag a hotel room — last year we ran out, so don't wait! NEW! Airfare discounts for Delta, Southwest and United.
