Important reporting in @azcentral from @beecycles, taking a look at how Arizona is (and isn't) preparing for a hotter and drier future with a bigger population. Supported by an IJNR climate justice & environmental racism post-workshop grant.

Sound advice here 👇👇

[Katie Hyson @katiehyson23]

Journo students, something I wish I was told when I started — A beat is built one story at a time. Don’t stress if you can’t wrap your arms around the whole thing on Day 1. Your knowledge, sourcing and body of coverage will grow each time you report. It takes time. Breathe. ❤️

Hello, environmental journalism friends! There is a rare opportunity to join the award-winning Audubon magazine team—we're looking for our next associate editor. Are you a versatile reporter? Curious about birds? Keen to grow with a creative, caring team?

[Dave Spratt ✌🏼 @davespratt1]

Dang it. Correction: 42+ years. The rest is accurate.

[Dave Spratt ✌🏼 @davespratt1]

Our dear friend @johnflesher is retiring from @AP after 41 yrs. John is the most recidivist @ijnr_connect Fellow (11+), a damn fine reporter and one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. It's a loss for #journalism, #environment and #greatlakes, but you've earned it. Ride well.

More fantastic reporting about Indigenous conservation efforts in @NatObserver, supported by an IJNR grant. Read about the threats posed to Haida Gwaii by ocean-going vessels, and what its residents are doing in response. https://t.co/2vSQ4DxtpX

Our old friend @sfretwell83 shows how it’s done, over and over, on behalf of #SouthCarolina residents 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

[Institute for Journalism & Natural Resources @ijnr_official]

Really important investigative series in @thestate from IJNR alum and longtime friend @sfretwell83, investigating the widespread use of PFAS-laden sludge on agricultural fields in South Carolina. https://t.co/SmaO7WOA6V

Gloria is an @ijnr_connect alum and fabulous journalist. And bears are awesome. Not sure what more you need to know…

[Gloria Dickie @GloriaDickie]

My first book is out today. It's about human relationships with the world's 8 bear species — from polar bears in the melting Arctic to pandas in captive breeding centres to moon bears on bile farms.

I hope you'll join me on this ursine odyssey.
