My respect for the master songwriter @davidgray has grown tremendously after this smart and heartfelt appeal for wetlands conservation.

My latest for Sierra Magazine on the never-ending war on the western US's piñon-juniper forests.

Why Is the Bureau of Land Management Still Clearcutting Piñon-Juniper Landscapes? sierraclub.org/sierra/why-bur…

Love this new story by Ben Goldfarb in Audubon Magazine about the consequences of the northward march of beavers. I particularly enjoyed his description of the tundra from the air: a 'checkerboard of irregular polygons, cleaved by expanding permafrost veins, carpet[ing] the earth.'

Insanity: Half of the Colorado River's water goes to growing cattle feed. The great river of the West has become the central artery of an industry that is clogging our arteries.

If you are bored and hankering for a meandering but enthusiastic 45-minute talk on amateur astronomy and the wonders of modern astrophotography--all based on my story in this issue--listen to the recording of my webinar with Bay Nature magazine last night! youtube.com/watch?v=1KFCtg…

For the latest issue of Bay Nature magazine I wrote about the joys and pains of being a city-bound astronomer--and some little things we can do to pierce through the glare

The latest in the West's long-running war against native trees.

I'm grateful my job allows me to work with some supremely talented science writers. Breaking down complex science and the 'why it matters' is an art that we need to support. This 3,000 word Jeremy Miller piece via Hakai Magazine is a shining ex. of that. hakaimagazine.com/features/how-t…

The US's central mining law dates to the administration of Ulysses S. Grant and is in need of a complete overhaul. My story for Sierra Magazine about damaged land, toxic water and the long-overdue changes being proposed by Congress.

In September, the Biden administration announced its intent to reform the General Mining Act, a law that allows a host of players to stake placer mining claims on public lands without environmental review or public hearings.
