Join us for SEJ's 34th annual conference, hosted at Arizona State University! The devastation of wildfires in Los Angeles is a stark reminder of the urgency of this moment for environmental journalism. As extreme weather and natural disasters grow in frequency and magnitude, a shift in the political climate adds another layer of complexity to covering these issues. Now more than ever, our collective mission to uncover and share critical and empirical truths about science, energy, policy, health impacts and equity is vital. Register now to secure your preferred tour and/or workshop as both are filling quickly.
‘Energy dominance’ is a Trump catchphrase whose meaning may be vague — since the U.S. is already the world’s top producer of oil and natural gas. But one thing that does seem clear, per the new Backgrounder, is that a flood of new U.S. permits to export gas will likely mean higher energy prices for U.S. customers.
Our Calendar lists professional meetings, webinars, press conferences, awards/fellowships/workshops deadlines and more. Apr 11 @ 10:30 a.m. ET: Mongabay webinar How To Cover Wildlife Corridors will examine how journalists can report on corridors and answer key questions related to their use in law, policy, scientific research, conservation and human development.
We've updated our "Topics on the Beat" pages with new links and an improved design. The resource aims to help reporters with quick introductions to key coverage areas, offering top SEJournal stories and the latest EJToday headlines. Visit our full set of Topics on the Beat on biodiversity, climate, disasters and hurricanes, energy, environmental justice, water & oceans, wildfire, agriculture and the food system.
