"At Blackwater Refuge, Rising Sea Levels Drown Habitat" [31]

"Efforts to Save the Cheat River Chart Clearer Course Forward" [45]

"The Cheat River flows pale green and slate gray, glistening in the sunshine as it gathers speed, turns to whitewater and drops between rocks on the way toward the Monongahela River. From there it makes its way to the Ohio River and the drinking water of millions of people. As West Virginia pushes toward an uncertain economic future, a river that once flowed bright orange charts a course out of mining's toxic legacies."
