Can you guess what they did when they met me? They reached out for me. It was amazing.” - Henrik Barck of Sweden on coming home to his twin infant sons after Swedish courts reversed a wrongful guilty verdict of child abuse

From mines in South Africa to oil fields in California, I dig into the issues affecting the planet and our public health. This can take me far from the comfort of a candy bowl-topped desk. Instead, I've seen my newsroom become a garbage dump, pits of acid mine drainage, mountaintop removal mines, the U.S.-Mexico border and a Caribbean beach full of nesting sea turtles. If a story's telling might do some good, drop me a line. No story is off limits.
