Canary’s editorial team will be led by managing editor Eric Wesoff and editor in chief Jeff St. John and feature Julian Spector and Emma Foehringer Merchant.
In addition, David Roberts, formerly of Grist and Vox, will join as editor-at-large, bringing his columns and podcast.
“Our team is committed to understanding and explaining the complex challenges we face in decarbonizing our global economy,” said St. John in a statement. “You can trust us to tell the truth, follow the money and leave no stone unturned in our mission — and I can’t imagine a better partner than RMI to support that effort.”
Canary debuts today with a free subscription newsletter.
