Environmental Studies/Journalism

Western Washington University - Bellingham
Environmental Journalism offers the opportunity to explore the intersection between the natural world and politics, science, economics, and culture. It combines rigorous research with creative storytelling. It provides the tools necessary to communicate to the public about vital issues, at a time when the goals of journalism are more important than ever: uncovering the facts, holding the powerful accountable and telling the stories of people and issues that are hidden, misunderstood or marginalized. If you’re passionate about environmental issues and want to communicate with the public about them, environmental journalism is a powerful way to do that. You will learn skills needed to research complex issues that intersect with science, politics, economics, recreation, culture, and society. You will also learn how to weave this information into timely stories that engage and inform the public through words and images.
