BEST EMVIRONMENTAL COVERAGE



 
 The Utne *winner for Best Environmental Coverage for 2013 is High Country News

Utne  explains explains best why they chose HCN: “If it weren’t for High Country News, we might never have heard about the effects of Twilight-inspired tourism on the Quileute tribe, about abandoned subdivision developments at the foot of the Grand Tetons, or the struggles of a California ski town facing warming temperatures and unpredictable snow falls. With riveting reports from people tapped in to the shouts of the wild, HCN sheds light on what’s happening in America beyond the edges of the daily, urban-focused news cycle.”

The Hoffman Family Library subscribes to HCN published bi-weekly 22 times a year.
The runners-up in this category were Grist, OnEarth, and Resurgent/Ecologist.
