What are the top stories for energy and environmental journalists to cover in 2022? Environmental justice, climate disasters, the changing energy industry and new regulations are at the top of the list — and there may be no place in the United States where these issues are more apparent than Houston, Texas, the location of SEJ's 2022 annual conference. Join SEJ for a look at the year ahead in the just-released "Journalists' Guide to Energy & Environment," moderated by #SEJ2022 co-chair Perla Trevizo. You'll also get a preview of #SEJ2022 agenda and issues.
