"From the Oregon border to the hills of San Diego County, California is a state that is destined to burn. Every summer brings new evidence of that in places like Paradise, Malibu and Santa Rosa."
To increase and improve coverage of biodiversity, SEJ's Fund for Environmental Journalism is offering grants of up to $5,000 for stories on these issues. To help you prepare the best FEJ proposal, join us at 1:30-2:30 p.m. on April 11, 2019 for an interactive webinar with leading experts on biodiversity and journalists who cover it. They'll provide an introduction to the top issues, share new data sources, and offer advice and story tips. Participate in a Q&A moderated by SEJ board member Gloria Dickie (pictured).
