From pipeline politics to hurricane horrors, 2017 witnessed a flood of energy and environment news — and 2018 promises to set a new high-water mark. On January 26 at the Wilson Center in Washington, DC, the Society of Environmental Journalists (SEJ) will launch its annual report, "The Journalists' Guide to Energy and Environment,” which previews the top stories of 2018, with comments from a roundtable of leading journalists.
For the last five years, the Society of Environmental Journalists and the Wilson Center have hosted the only annual event in the nation's capital featuring top journalists offering their predictions for the year ahead on environment and energy. Since 2013, more than 30 reporters from New York Times, Washington Post, National Geographic, Politico, Associated Press, Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg Environment and many more have shared their observations with thousands of policymakers, journalists and business leaders in Washington, DC, and around the world. Always streamed live and always standing room only, this event is essential for anyone working to meet the critical energy and environment challenges facing our nation and the world.
A reception will follow, courtesy of The Nature Conservancy, National Park Foundation, Environment America, The Wilderness Society and the Environmental Law Institute.
WHEN: January 26, 2018, 3-5 PM (reception to follow)
WHERE: The Wilson Center, 1300 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC 20004. Directions.
