Calling the Thwaites Glacier the “doomsday glacier” makes people feel hopeless in efforts against climate change. We are not helpless victims. Instead, we should showcase ways people are helping combat this issue.

Thanks Hannah O. Brown for speaking with us in #EJUF class today! I am inspired by how The Marjorie tells human stories associated with the environment that are accessible to us all!

Watching Robert Kenner’s “Merchants of Doubt” for #EJUF. Amazed to see similarities between the reporting from decades ago on cigarette smoking and current climate change reporting. Turns out cigarette smoking is actually bad for you…

I would love to see more stories about ways people are helping with hurricane recovery. This quote reminds me of our solutions journalism discussions in #EJUF: "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” - Fred Rogers.

When NKwanda Jah said “we all breathe the same air” in #EJUF today, it really resonated with me. One of the most beautiful things about the environment is the interconnectedness, which connects us all as people. But that is also why everyone needs to protect it.

So interesting to learn how creative and resourceful the people that came before us were. Thank you Cynthia Barnett for your guidance throughout this process. Excited to read all the stories by my #EJUF peers!
