Our Guiding Principles
Listening
We believe the quality of our listening determines the quality of our stories. We listen with empathy, curiosity, and a willingness to learn and change.
Connection
We start with the understanding that humans are part of the natural world, not separate from it, and that our relationships to the places and non-human lives around us are as rich and meaningful as our connections with each other.
Integrity
We're committed to rigorous reporting, vigilant fact-checking, independence from any outside group or individual, and admitting when we get something wrong.
Complexity
True stories are inherently complex stories. We reveal unexpected throughlines and undercurrents, explore nuance, and illuminate shades of gray.
Justice
We believe our journalism can and should strengthen democracy. We amplify a multitude of voices, call attention to overlooked stories, interrogate our own biases, and encourage thoughtful analysis.
