Climate and energy reporter Tim Puko has left the Washington Post via its buyout offer.
Puko previously worked at the Wall Street Journal, where he had been reporting on energy and climate policy in Washington since 2017. He has closely covered the nation’s oil lobby, greenhouse-gas regulations, and the geopolitics of oil and minerals.
He has been reporting on energy and climate change for more than a decade, spending the first half of his career at the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, where he chronicled how Marcellus Shale was changing his home state of Pennsylvania — before it changed the rest of the world. He was the paper’s reporter of the year in 2011 and a three-time winner of the Society of Professional Journalists’ award for environmental reporter of the year in Pennsylvania.
