Today, we get to interview author Kevin Krajick. Below is a small sample of his credentials and accolades.Senior Editor Science News Communications, Columbia Climate SchoolAuthor at State of the PlanetWork has been featured in National Geographic, Newsweek, The New Yorker, Science, Smithsonian Mag, etcTwo time Winner of the American Geophysical Union's Walter Sullivan Award - excellence in science journalismFinalist for the National Magazine Award for Public ServiceWe were interested in interviewing Kevin because of his book on Searching for diamonds in the Northwest Territories in Canada. This is a place near and dear to Jesse's heart because he does a lot of research up there. The book is exceptional and reads more like a novel mainly because of two featured individuals: Chuck Fipke and Stewart (Stu) Blusson. They are both Canadian geologists, prospectors, businessmen, helicopter pilot, etc. Check the link below for the book.

In addition to writing this book, Kevin is a writer for the Columbia Climate School (https://news.climate.columbia.edu/). He has written on an impressive array of topic from climate, Earth science, and society.

We hope you enjoy this interesting interview. Cheers.
