Molly Peterson has reported on climate change, catastrophe, and risk since moving to New Orleans to cover the aftermath of hurricanes Katrina and Rita. A former lawyer, she has published work on NPR and in the New York Times, the Guardian, Grist, High Country News, and other public media outlets. 

 

Molly is a member of the board of the Society of Environmental Journalists, and she’s based in Los Angeles, where she’d bet that her homeowner’s policy incorrectly prices her risk.
