SEJ's Executive Director Meaghan Parker writes a heartfelt thank you to our 2020 donors and cites a few examples of our impact in 2020.
Join the Pulitzer Center, Missouri School of Journalism and Society of Environmental Journalists at 11:00 a.m. CT for a panel discussion on science, health, and environmental reporting. Four Pulitzer Center Reporting Fellow alums will share their reporting experiences, and a Q&A session will follow.
"How a small country in Northern Europe (with fewer people than Wisconsin) has succeeded at making the transition to clean transportation to an extent that no other nation comes close to matching."
"Mark Bittman is most famous for the 30,000 recipes he’s developed in decades of being a food journalist and authoring 30 books focused on cooking and eating. But this month’s Animal, Vegetable, Junk: A History of Food from Sustainable to Suicidal is not another recipe book, it’s a deeply researched call to arms to reshape our food system to center people and planet rather than profit."
"State regulators can apply stricter drinking water standards to limit the groundwater pollution coming from a northern Minnesota taconite mine, the Minnesota Supreme Court ruled Tuesday."
"Appalachia's fracking boom has failed to deliver on promises of jobs and benefits to local economies, according to a new study."
"A federal judge on Thursday overturned a Trump administration action that allowed mining and other development on 10 million acres (4 million hectares) in parts of six western states that are considered important for the survival of a struggling bird species."
"The Interior Department on Thursday reversed actions taken by former Interior Secretary David Bernhardt governing spending of Land and Water Conservation Fund revenues."
"Groups pushing for expansion of the nation's bulk power grid to improve access to development of the lowest-cost wind and solar energy got a new ally last month — the White House."
"The Biden administration is delaying a Trump administration rule that was expected to result in the oil and gas industry paying less money for drilling on public lands and waters."
