I’ve been a climate journalist for 10 years. I’ve been a Disneyland fan my whole life.

Excited to break the news that Autopia is finally ditching gas cars and going electric.

Now Disney should make Tomorrowland all about clean energy. My Los Angeles Times column: latimes.com/environment/ne…

It is imperative that Sylvia M. Burwell, Seth Grossman, Erika Pulley-Hayes, and Michael Tribble #UnlockDCist . It’s a matter of democracy.

After today's leadership-led bloodbath, it's looking like WAMU 88.5 will be left with less than a half-dozen reporters. At full strength sometime in late 2022, it had at least three times that number.

This morning, WAMU 88.5 management informed us they are laying off 15 vital people from our organization. These individuals are the lifeblood of our journalism. Our hearts are broken. We can’t believe we are losing our colleagues and friends.

Workers The Washington Post have been in contract negotiations with our bosses for 18 months.

But the company is refusing to pay us what we’re worth or bargain in good faith.

If you have a few moments, listen to our reporting from Nicaragua. It’s a place we hear little about on the international press because for more than year, it’s kept international journalists out. I made a trip and found a country suffocated by fear. npr.org/2023/09/08/119…

After getting laid off 2 months ago and getting madder and sadder about all the layoffs I continue to see, I'm leaning into the misery and working on a story about layoffs for This American Life.

A major child labor rollback goes into effect in Iowa this weekend.

14 year-olds are now allowed to work in meat coolers, 15 year-olds can join assembly lines and 16 year-olds can serve alcohol.
