A review by balletbookworm
The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2022 by Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, Jaime Green

5.0

A really solid (as per usual) collection of science essays/articles gleaned from publications in 2021 - a major focus this issue was the impact of climate change on Indigenous cultures (there was an interesting article on carbon exchange use by tribal councils to preserve land rights - as I understood - that it felt very finance-y which meant I had trouble working out the actual logistics but definitely an important piece) and POC communities. There was also a phenomenal piece of reporting about lead poisoning at a reclamation plant that was part 1 of an expose and I really need to track down part 2.
