Groundwater: Our Hidden and Unprotected Heritage
The Friends of the Madden Library and the Central Valley Water Awareness Committee present Mark Grossi, Fresno Bee Award-winning Environmental/Science Writer, discussing “Groundwater: Our Hidden and Unprotected Heritage.”
Despite our recent El Niño rains, groundwater remains one of our region’s most important and controversial issues. Mark Grossi was the environmental/science writer at The Fresno Bee from 1993 to 2015. In his 39-year career, he worked at three newspapers as a reporter, editor and columnist. His awards include a year-long science writing fellowship at MIT. He won recognition in several national competitions, including Investigative Reporters and Editors, National Press Club and John B. Oakes Award at Columbia University. He was awarded a 2016 writing fellowship by Alicia Patterson Foundation to write about environmental risks of living in rural communities around the San Joaquin Valley.
