Awards: Grantham Prize Rewards Investigative Journalism on Climate Change-Driven Deforestation

The Salt Lake Tribune documented climate change-driven deforestation in the U.S. in this interesting eight-part series - a great model for investigative journalism about the environment. 


The series has now picked up a lucrative $75,000 Grantham Prize for Excellence in Reporting on the Environment.

Three other investigative reporting projects - a book, a documentary film and a multi-media story - won $5,000 awards of special merit. Read more here. Congrats to the winners.
