Stories About People and the Environment Can Change the World
I have worked in all forms of media over the past four decades, including national television news, radio, print, and online publications. As a reporter and producer in the field, I have witnessed the stories of those struggling with natural and human-caused hardships. The fishermen, farmers, and residents battling refinery pollution all have powerful stories to tell. From the boreal forests of northern Alberta to the polluted refineries of the Gulf of Mexico, I have seen their storytelling resonate with people all over the world. I plan to post more of those stories for you.
