Into the Big Empty: Energy Boom and Bust in Wyoming's Red Desert
Journey into Wyoming's Red Desert, a little known wilderness the size of Denali National Park that brings the steppes of Mongolia to America's backyard. Here, energy companies vie for the desert's riches in a world of 50,000 pronghorn, herds of wild horses and some of the most unforgiving landscapes of the West. Come learn of this place and the struggles to protect it as you travel Into the Big Empty.
I like to merge scientific exploration with journalism as a way of bringing people stories about our natural world. It's my hope that this will show just how closely tied we are to the health of the environment, and encourage us all to feel like participants in its conservation.
