How to Make Our Own News: A Primer for Environmentalists and Journalists

by John Maxwell

A must-read for community activists who've ever wondered how to get their stories in the media. How to Make Our Own News will also be a useful resource for journalists who cover environmental issues. The author is a veteran journalist who also has long been directly engaged in work on behalf of the environment, and he has written a cogent "how to" on reaching audiences, developing story ideas, conducting successful interviews and writing stories that will be accepted by news editors. The work includes appendixes that summarise Agenda 21, the principles of sustainable development that resulted from the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro.
