For my Climate Lab column, I made a map of how much nature is in every neighborhood in America. Spending time in nature is positively correlated with living longer & healthier.

.WBEZ leadership just announced the elimination of our podcast unit, the end of the Vocalo radio broadcast and the layoffs of 14 people. It's only been two years since we were big enough and financially healthy enough to acquire the Sun-Times.

I am thrilled and honored to receive the Spirit of Diversity Award from The Journalism Institute for Media Diversity at Wayne State University. It's crucial our industry remains committed to reflecting the world around us and creating more pathways for journalists of color.
