“Thank you Grist for making me feel smarter with every read. You guys provide honest, insightful coverage of climate and environment news — with fresh perspectives, quirky humor, and damn good writing. As a Californian, I especially appreciated learning whether environmental justice groups have a legitimate beef with the state’s cap-and-trade program. You’ve tackled major issues and interviewed key thought-leaders — there’s gotta be a way to earn a Masters degree from continuously reading Grist articles. Please look into this!”

Thanks, Rhey. We’ve got some exciting stuff coming up, so prepare yourself for a few all-nighters. Enjoy the water bottle!
