This week, I started as the Environment and Public Health Correspondent at Lookout Eugene-Springfield, a community newspaper that's digital. ✨ We officially launch on April 10! ✨➡️ lookouteugene-springfield.com

Humbled to be a @selc.bsky.social Reed Writing Award finalist. EtO stories are complex & emotional to report. Grateful for @mlk50memphis.bsky.social editors, @wendicthomas.bsky.social & Adrienne Johnson Martin, and their thoughtful support to this work. www.southernenvironment.org/news/meet-ou...

Contributor @ashliblow.bsky.social has been covering issues with Velsicol for @tnlookout.bsky.social for three years and has a big update:

Big development in the 3-year Velsicol investigation at @tnlookout.bsky.social ⬇️ The company’s proposal to transfer into an environmental trust follows recent questions from regulators and attorneys about mismanagement and potentially fraudulent activity. tennesseelookout.com/2024/12/11/v...

This thing on? We've probably met on other platforms ... if not, hi I'm Ashli 👋 Independent journalist who covers climate adaptation, pollution abatement, wildland fire management, and so, so, so much more. If you're an editor looking for pitches, I'm open for commissions!
