\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I hope that you each had time with friends, family, and the more-than-human world over the holidays. I was lucky enough to have time off from work and to spend a lot of time with many loved ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the break, I emailed myself a few news stories I didn\u2019t think people should miss, so I’m going back in time here a bit:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 \u201cNew Mexico\u2019s Nuclear Weapons Boom\u201d<\/a> (Abe Streep, The New Yorker<\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 \u201cWhat happens when climate denialism and misogyny intersect? Enter: \u2018petro-masculinity\u2019\u201d <\/a>(Jessica Kutz, The 19th)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 \u201cSee Where Home Insurance Policies Were Dropped in Your State\u201d<\/a> (Mira Rojanasakul and Christopher Flavelle, The New York Times<\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 \u201cThe Elephantine Memories of Food-Caching Birds\u201d<\/a> (Matthew Hutson, The New Yorker<\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 \u201cThe Rivers Run Dry and the Lights Go Out: A Warming Nation\u2019s Doom Loop\u201d<\/a> (Julie Turkewitz and Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Le\u00f3n Cabrera with photographs by Federico Rios, The New York Times<\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This will be my last issue of Our Land Weekly. And sometime in the coming weeks, New Mexico in Focus will air my final piece \u2014 a conversation with Source NM reporter Danielle Prokop<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also wanted to send out one last reminder about Our Land educational resources! <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the years, I\u2019ve worked with environmental educator Mollie Parsons, who created amazing lesson plans for New Mexico teachers and students based on our shows about issues like climate change, environmental careers, public lands, Water Back, and so much more. You can find all those lesson plans on PBS LearningMedia!  <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you so much to everyone who has watched the show, read this newsletter, sent a book in the mail<\/a>, joined me on social media or at a public event. And thank you to all the people who have appeared on Our Land over the past eight seasons<\/a>. I have loved exploring New Mexico\u2019s environmental issues with all of you! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019d like to stay in touch, you can follow me on Instagram<\/a> or drop a note through my website<\/a> \u2014 and if you\u2019re in Santa Fe, come out to the Southside Library Wednesday night!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best wishes,\u00a0
Laura Paskus<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
