Why does environmental journalism matter? Why don't news organizations support environmental journalism more considering every community is impacted by environmental issues? How do environmental journalists get in the field? Associate professor and environmental journalism expert Suzannah Evans Comfort joins us this episode to explore these questions and look into the roots of the journalism coverage that addresses human-caused degradation of our environment. Special thanks to host Lydia Norton, producer Betsy Leija, and intern Alice Racek. Original music was created by Avi Forrest and Natalie Ingalls.
