It was an honor to talk with Kingkini for her NPR NextGenRadio climate project.

THE IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE

We are finding, coaching and training public media’s next generation. This #NPRNextGenRadio project is created with the University of Nevada, Reno, where five talented reporters are participating in a week-long state-of-the-art training program.

In this project we are highlighting the experiences of people whose lives are being affected by climate change.
