"Since joining the SEJ Board this summer, I’ve been deeply impressed by both the amount of work that goes into keeping the organization thriving and the people doing that work. It’s also clear that SEJ is at a critical junction on multiple fronts — from staffing and financing to DEIJ+ initiatives — and I would love to continue helping the board turn those challenges into opportunities."
"Having been a (very proud) co-host of our most recent conference in Philadelphia, I was given the opportunity of discovering the "bones" of SEJ. My conclusion is they are STRONG!! I want to use this knowledge gained — and trust given — to put my shoulder to the wheel and work to make SEJ stronger still."
"My name is Doug Cress and I intend to run for a seat on the Society of Environmental Journalists (SEJ) Board of Directors. In addition to being a member of the SEJ and a print and radio reporter, I bring over 40 years of professional experience both serving on international boards and collaborating with global boards, executive committees, working groups, task forces and strategic alliances to address global environmental issues."
My name is Molly Peterson, and I’m seeking to join the board of the Society of Environmental Journalists because SEJ has served me and strengthened my journalism for so, so long, and I’ve got the capacity and enthusiasm to make a meaningful contribution to the board.
"I am Abdulkareem Mojeed from Nigeria. I am a Business and Environment reporter with Nigeria's only Pulitzer-winning newspaper, Premium Times. I am a graduate of Botany and Ecological Studies turned-journalist. I became a journalist because I see the profession as one that can be used to drive sustainable development across communities in Nigeria and Africa at large."
"I am honored to announce my candidacy for the open seats on the Board of Directors. SEJ has been an integral part of my career since I became a climate journalist for a few years now (after a short stint as an earth scientist during my undergraduate years)."
"When I was three years old, a wasp landed on my hand and stung me. Instead of running away or killing it, I cupped it in my palms so it couldn’t get to my face. Sure, it stung me a couple more times (and I yelled in pain), but I think it says something about my personality: I am persistent, focused on finding solutions, even if they’re unconventional, and I don’t like to kill arthropods for any reason."
"I have over 15 years experience as a public radio reporter, reporting mainly on the environment in Western Pennsylvania. I work as an energy reporter for the Allegheny Front, an independent public radio news magazine based in Pittsburgh that focuses on the environment."
"Former President Trump on Monday night said climate change is not “the biggest threat” and claimed it would create “more oceanfront property.”
