Over the decades, we have come to appreciate the reporting of Seattle Times’ environmental reporter Lynda Mapes. In August, she retired. Here’s her last column. Thank you Linda for all your great coverage. You will be missed.
“EARLIER THIS MONTH, I SAID goodbye after nearly three decades as a staff reporter at The Seattle Times, specializing in coverage of the environment, nature and Native American tribes. During this time I have seen so much change. “
Seattle writer Lynda V. Mapes thanks readers for decades of inspiration

Chris shares his thoughts on 35 years of environmental reporting. I know that he has been an inspiration to my work on this blog since I started it in 2007.
Christopher Dunagan, who retired from daily reporting at the Kitsap Sun and now blogs, wrote of his 35 years of reporting: … “I grew up believing that science was a particular set of facts that explained the workings of nature. For the longest time, I failed to see that the most important thing about science was formulating the right questions about things we don’t know….While there is much work to do, we’re at a point where we can expect Puget Sound residents to limit their damage to the ecosystem and become part of the restoration effort.” (Watching Our Water Ways)
