For more than 20 years, Laura Paskus has written and produced stories about New Mexico’s rivers, including the Middle Rio Grande. Join us for a presentation and conversation about what she’s learned along the way — not just about climate change and water challenges, but about love, political courage, and connection.
This article documents an arduous pilgrimage across New Mexico undertaken to highlight the cumulative impacts of oil and gas development—carbon emissions, air pollution, contaminated water, and damaged landscapes—and the risks these pose to communities and future generations.
