'At the risk of creating a Reply All situation that never ends...' began the best Reply All thread ever, from Jesse Hirsch asking alumni of the Metcalf Institute's Marine and Environmental Reporting program (I was in the cohort of '09) to share what we've been up to. Covering topics from evangelicals to boobies, whales to mycelium, links to so many cool stories, projects, books, blogs, podcasts, and news outlets came flooding in. The creativity and dedication of this group of writers and communicators is incredible ??

?? Important announcement! We've just opened?applications?for the next 2 cohorts of our?Oxford Climate Journalism Network. Here's all you need to know. The network, founded by Wolfgang Blau and Meera Selva and run by our colleagues Mitali Mukherjee, Diego Arguedas Ortiz and Katherine Dunn, supports a global community of reporters and editors across beats to improve the quality?and impact of climate coverage around the world. Since its launch in January 2022, the network has worked with 600 reporters and editors from over 100 countries. ???Who should?apply??Our online programme is open not only to science or climate journalists but equally to journalists of any other beat who are interested in adding the climate dimension to the topics they cover. Our working assumption is that climate change is not only a topic but rather a systemic issue that affects all verticals of a news organisation, including culture, health, sports or travel. ??? What do members do??Members?participate in a six-month online programme with access to world-leading experts, dedicated workshops and a community of 100 journalists. We expect members to join a series of mandatory sessions, usually held Tuesdays at 13:00 UK time. They are also expected to?engage on the?community’s online platform and join 60-minute optional sessions whenever possible. ????♀??How can you apply??Complete?an online form in the link below?and provide a letter from your editor?confirming you have their support. This letter should state that your outlet will allocate time for you to participate in our activities. It can also include information on why your manager thinks you are a good fit?for the programme. We'll select 100 journalists for the cohort joining us in the first semester of?2025?and 100 more for the one joining us in the second semester. The deadline to?apply is?Sunday 13 October at 23:59 UK time. Everything you need to know in the link below #climatechange #climatejournalism #climatenews https://lnkd.in/emv2jujU?
