Faculty

One important part of the Center for Environmental Journalism’s mission is to conduct research on the various aspects of media and environmental issues. This can include everything from risk communication to environmental politics and religion. Here at the CEJ, faculty and students work together and individually to help create new knowledge regarding the roles that media play in helping form our environmental values, policies and behaviors. A sample of our faculty work can be viewed below (click on the image to view).

Hoover Dam holds back the waters of Lake Mead, the largest U.S. reservoir, as seen on June 28, 2022. At full capacity, the water reached almost to the top of the dam. Since then, it has dropped nearly 180 feet. To get a sense of scale, consider that this is more than 80 percent of the distance between the road bed of the Golden Gate Bridge and the water below.
