Well worth reading this entire list (if you can bear it):

ICYMI, I wrote about how Vermont officials are weighing a world without FEMA. TLDR, it doesn't look good for the brave little state: vtdigger.org/2025/05/29/w...

"If you were to blindfold naturalists from New England and take them into some of the forests in Queens, they might think they were back home, as opposed to mere yards from Grand Central Parkway" -- What a wonderful look at NYC's urban forests in @nymag.com www.curbed.com/article/beec...

A story about arctic relocation and institutions' failure to provide for people who have been failed time and time again by the US gov -- a really essential read as the reality of relocation comes into finer focus for many coastal communities www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

One of my favorite pieces for @vtdigger.bsky.social -- on the true costs of rural healthcare & on what one community stands to lose with the closure of a midwife-led birthing center: vtdigger.org/2025/06/02/c...

Yesterday the DOJ challenged both New York and Vermont's climate superfund lawsuits in federal court. It's a move that proponents of the law have long been expecting. Now they're gearing up: vtdigger.org/2025/05/01/t...

a great read about what happens when we manufacture environments and then dictate what is native to it or not -- therevelator.org/invasive-swa...

such a lovely piece by @neeldhanesha.com about how the ethos that guides our response to climate change can be the same ethos that saves the industry reporting on it. (and about how good things happen when journalists go drinking together) www.niemanlab.org/2025/04/a-co...

A big one today -- on the end of FEMA's BRIC program and where that leaves Vermonters looking for ways to prepare for the worst and prevent further damage from future floods and disasters vtdigger.org/2025/04/23/f...

Minnesota's forests are changing fast. Development and climate change are pushing them to the brink. Scientists predict that the northern part of the state will soon feel like the southern part, which is why researchers are collecting seeds to reforest the region.

Plus, check out my story on climate corridors and miles and miles of undeveloped wilderness in Western Maine -- come for the photos, stay for the trout and tales of 1800s logging practices insideclimatenews.org/news/1304202...

ICYMI -- Last week, Trump signed an executive order targeting state climate laws, including VT's landmark superfund. What that changes, for now, is not much, the state AG told me last week. Read about what changes - and what stays the same - here vtdigger.org/2025/04/09/t...

Have you heard of Small Nuclear Reactors? Neither had I. But I suspect you + I both will hear about them a lot more, as renewables face more obstacles and states like VT strive for low-carbon energy. My latest on New England on the precipice of this nuclear tech vtdigger.org/2025/04/01/g...

My latest for @vtdigger.bsky.social on just how much is at stake for Vermont's forests with cuts to federal grant funding vtdigger.org/2025/03/24/f...

🚨This week, many Columbia scientists lost grants that funded over half their annual income. Others will no longer be able to do research that helps treat thousands of sick patients across the US. "It hurts," they told me. My story for @nature.com 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

some much-needed, even-keeled wisdom for navigating whiplash

My latest for @insideclimatenews.org on how New York's passage of a climate superfund is fueling a growing trend of polluters-pay climate legislation insideclimatenews.org/news/1101202...

really lovely piece about a fascinating land agreement from @chloewilliams.bsky.social

opening the @hels.bsky.social gift guide every year is every bit as exciting as opening up gifts themselves on Christmas

Making the overdue pivot to Bluesky, and what better way to do so than to share my most recent piece about a massive tribal land return in the far reaches of Maine. Check it out in @insideclimatenews.org insideclimatenews.org/news/1711202...

@kanakarajanphd.bsky.social sat down with @oliviagieger.bsky.social to discuss how art can help explain complex ideas without diluting the science. www.thetransmitter.org/craft-and-ca...

Ketamine's affinity for overactive cells in the “anti-reward” region may help explain its rapid and long-lasting results. By @oliviagieger.bsky.social www.thetransmitter.org/ketamine/ket...

@oliviagieger.bsky.social sits down with Pei Yuan Zhang to discuss life outside the lab, which for Zhang includes filming documentaries that challenge her love of data and order. www.thetransmitter.org/craft-and-ca...
