On Sunday, the Food & Environment Reporting Network published an important front cover story on shark finning and endangered shark species in the travel section of the San Francisco Chronicle. This story follows on the heels of our recent story on antibiotic resistance for Medium.com, which has had over 300,000 pageviews. These are just a few of the many stories FERN will be publishing this holiday season. But we couldn’t do our work without you!
Today, Tuesday, December 3, we hope you will join us in observing #GivingTuesday, a national day to kick off the giving season. Your end of year giving to FERN will help us continue to shine a light on crtitical, underreported food and environmental stories impacting us all. As a registered 501(c)3 organization, your donations to FERN are tax deductible.
