I started my career as a freelance science/tech writer in the mid 90s
I wanted to write climate stories -- but back then, editors were leery
About five years ago, things changed: They started greenlighting those ideas
In the last five years, I've published more pieces on climate, mobility and lower-carbon power than I did in the previous 25
