Kendra Pierre-Louis - Climate Change

<p>Climate change reporting often means documenting some of the worst events that ever happen to people. But Kendra Pierre-Louis (<a href='https://twitter.com/KendraWrites'>@kendrawrites</a>), whether reporting for the podcast How to Save the Planet, or posting pictures of bear sex, manages to make it not totally depressing. Kendra, an independent climate reporter, talks about gradually finding her way into journalism, reporting in India and Myanmar, and her years at NYT.</p> <p>Countries featured: USA, India, Myanmar</p> <p>Publications featured: Spotify/Gimlet's How to Save the Planet, The New York Times, Popular Science, Inside Climate News, Sierra, Hakai, Newsweek, 538, Modern Farmer, Vice</p> <p> </p> <p>Here are links to some of the things we talked about:</p> <p>Kendra's book Green Washed - <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Green-Washed-Why-Cant-Planet/dp/193543943X'>bit.ly/3ZZKbvz</a></p> <p>Erica Gies website - <a href='https://ericagies.com/'>bit.ly/402jGWC</a></p> <p>Kendra's story in India for 538 - <a href='https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/how-a-deadly-heat-wave-led-to-disastrous-floods-2000-miles-away/'>bit.ly/3J7JqK5</a></p> <p>Her story on Myanmar for Earth Island Journal - <a href='https://www.earthisland.org/journal/index.php/magazine/entry/forecast_uncertain/'>bit.ly/3YFB3v9</a></p> <p>Her viral visual essay on the U.S. before EPA cleanup - <a href='https://www.popsci.com/america-before-epa-photos/'>bit.ly/3yvlVpl</a></p> <p>How to Save the Planet episode on biking - <a href='https://open.spotify.com/episode/6bYjtLy4KdXwZYqMLg6TCH?si=ebf3fa7b19bc4da7'>bit.ly/3ysEtXz</a></p> <p>Podcast episode on agrovoltaics - <a href='https://open.spotify.com/episode/5kjZqM9jZTPdzvqxqOFpl6?si=daff7cff578b4411'>bit.ly/3ZXb978</a></p> <p>ProPublica story on UnitedHealthcare - <a href='https://www.propublica.org/article/unitedhealth-healthcare-insurance-denial-ulcerative-colitis'>bit.ly/3LkVoTo</a> </p> <p>Her anti-mayonnaise screed - <a href='https://www.popsci.com/mayonnaise-disgust/'>bit.ly/3yxe376</a></p> <
