Lifting The Lid on Ecocide with Journalist Lylla Younes
In this episode, Robert welcomes Lylla Younes, senior staff writer and award winning journalist at Grist on to the podcast. Grist is a nonprofit, independent media organization dedicated to telling stories of climate solutions and a just future.
Here Lylla covers environmental investigations and environmental justice. She was previously a reporter and developer at ProPublica, where her work mapping cancer-causing industrial pollution in Louisiana helped lead to the suspension of Formosa Plastics permit in St. James Parish and won the 2020 Nina Mason Pulliam Award for Outstanding Environmental Reporting.
Robert and Lylla discuss a wide range of topics and some of her articles, including how Berkeley became the first city in the United States to ban natural, fossil gas hook-ups in new buildings.
