Talks to protect the high seas — areas of the oceans beyond national jurisdiction — collapsed last month. For the fifth time. The high seas comprise half the planet. Only about 1% have protection. My rundown for @NatObserver @GreenpeaceCA ⬇️ nationalobserver.com/2022/09/13/opi…


"Hatcheries hold up a mirror to the stubborn belief that salmon can exist without intact habitat." Salmon hatcheries: are they band aids — or bastions for rivers at their 11th hour? @VMart bringing 🔥 writing and piercing clarity to a very complex issue. hakaimagazine.com/features/the-h…

Robyn believed in me back when I was a wide-eyed, panicky journo. She's the kind of editor that believes in you before you believe in yourself. And I'm only one of countless young writers she's shaped. Journalism needs more like her. @TheTyee thetyee.ca/Tyeenews/2021/…

Among the giant shifts #ClimateAction requires? Doubling our electricity supply! That means we need more #renewables, and who we vote for in #Elxn44 impacts the energy system we'll get. My latest for @TheTyee thetyee.ca/Analysis/2021/…

Since 1992, Canada’s missed every emissions-reduction goal it’s set. But with more public pressure for climate action, voters should play close attention to pledges this #CdnElxn2021, say experts. Here’s #WhereTheyStand: thetyee.ca/News/2021/08/3…

“For me, reclaiming my participation in the outdoors is about putting down a stake and saying I have a right to be here, to live and thrive.” These BIPOC adventurers are transforming the sense of who belongs in the natural world. 📷 essay: @aliayportrait thenarwhal.ca/bipoc-outdoor-…


Horrible news… Salmon stocks on east Vancouver Island had some promising returns in recent years. The heat dome this June caused an awful coho die-off and left the region Parched. @bbrraaeellaa for @thenarwhalca ⬇️

#VancouverIsland has entered the most severe drought level in B.C. — a designation that means adverse impacts on socio-economic or ecosystem values are “almost guaranteed.” @bbrraaeellaa explores what that means for salmon and watersheds: thenarwhal.ca/vancouver-isla…
