A little over a decade ago, the worst environmental disaster in America unfolded in the Gulf of Mexico. The grossly negligent oil giant BP cut corners while drilling a deep sea well leading to the unchecked release of 4.9 million barrels of crude into the fisheries-rich waters of the Gulf. As staff for the Louisiana Governor’s coastal team, I watched the disaster unfold in real time and then went into battle to shape the narrative around this case.

在应对气候变化的斗争中改变叙述以获得更好的结果

十多年前，美国最严重的环境灾难发生在墨西哥湾。严重疏忽的石油巨头 BP 在钻深海井时偷工减料，导致 490 万桶原油不受限制地释放到渔业丰富的海湾水域。作为路易斯安那州州长海岸小组的工作人员，我实时观察了灾难的发生，然后投入战斗以塑造围绕此案的叙事。
