Environmental Journalism opportunities

I am a sucker for the wedding section of the NY Times. Since it's not a big news story, i noticed that the NY Times stopped updating the section. They used to have videos each week. I'm a sucker for romance and thought the videos were cute.

Irregardless of this, I read an article about a couple this week and noticed that the bride, Laura Keane, was a Henry Luce Fellow. I also read another article in the NY Times magazine about Jeremy Grantham, an environmentalist and Wall Street businessman. The article was entitled, "A Darker Shade of Green," written by Carlo Rotella. The article mentioned the Grantham PRize for Excellence in Environmental Journalism, which awards $75,000 to an environmental journalist.

This led me to research about the Luce Fellowship, named after Henry Luce, the founder of Time Magazine. These are all opportunities worth considering. I'll get back to this later. I have to work on a few other things.
