I want to gather stories from scientists and/or nature lovers
about upsetting things they've witnessed over the course of many
years as a result of climate change. I often feel like one of
the challenges in getting people to take climate change
seriously is that it feels abstract, not like something
tangible. I want to talk to people who have seen animal
populations decline, or who have witnessed wildfires going out
of control more than they ever did before, or have in other ways
witnessed firsthand the destructive effects of climate change.
Requirements:
I'm looking for people who either (a) spend a lot of time in

Query:
For Goalcast - I'm working on a story today vaguely related to
the news that Samantha won't be on the SATC return coming soon
to HBO Max. Basically - I am covering how that's actually a
pretty normal take on friendship through the decades - as time
goes on, friendships DO change, and the people who we were going
to brunch with every week in our 20s or 30s may not necessarily
be the same exact core group we hang with in our 40s or 50s.
People drift apart, move, relationships change. A foursome could
easily become a threesome for many reasons. Like basically - the
gist is - aside from the obvious drama behind the scenes - it's
actually a pretty typical trajectory for adult women
friendships. I'd LOVE if a social psychologist or therapist can
weigh in over email on this (today would be great).

Query:
Hello. My name is Erik Martin, and I am a reporter with CTW
Features. We will be creating a nationally syndicated special
section called "Family Health" in early 2020 that will publish
in newspapers and websites across the country (visit
https://tinyurl.com/ejmctwfeatures for past syndicated content
samples from CTW Features). For one of the stories running in
this section, I'm looking to interview infection control and
prevention experts, physicians, COVID-19 health experts, and
other professionals for the following story:
Inoculating hope: Here's what your family needs to know about
the coronavirus vaccines. This article will serve as a basic
primer (based on the latest information at the time of writing)
on why vaccines are recommended, for whom, when and where you
can expect to get one, how many vaccines will be necessary and
over what period, expected effectiveness rate, misunderstandings
about what it can/cannot do, and more, with comments and tips
provided by health experts.
For this story, I can only accept written responses submitted
via email. If you'd like to participate, please contact me. My
deadline to receive written responses is noon central, Thursday,

QUESTIONS: 1. What's the very latest we know about coronavirus
vaccines: Why are they recommended? When and where they will be
distributed, how many vaccines have been made and are ready at
this point, and who is eligible to receive a vaccine? 2. Who
should be getting the first round of vaccines and why? Which
individuals should take priority for getting the vaccine
soonest? 3. What your readers need to do here: Should they
contact their physician's office to inquire about when vaccines
will be ready and how they can schedule a visit for one? Where
can they expect to receive one or more vaccines? 4. What should
people expect when it comes to receiving the vaccine: How
effective is it likely to be, what are the potential side
effects, what will they need to do in the hours and days after
receiving the vaccine (e.g., continue to socially distance, wear
a mask, wash her hands, for how long?)? 5. Why are experts
saying that people also need a second or further round of
vaccines? Why is this necessary and recommended within this
timeframe? When should a person expect to receive a second
vaccine? Will further rounds of vaccines beyond the first two
inoculations also be required? 6. What are some
myths/misunderstandings about what the vaccine can and cannot
do? 7. Please explain if and how it's possible to contract
coronavirus a second time, even after you've received
vaccine(s). What's the latest we know about this?

Query:
Hello. My name is Erik Martin, and I am a reporter with CTW
Features. We will be creating a nationally syndicated special
section called "Family Health" in early 2020 that will publish
in newspapers and websites across the country (visit
https://tinyurl.com/ejmctwfeatures for past syndicated content
samples from CTW Features). For one of the stories running in
this section, I'm looking to interview fitness experts, weight
loss professionals, personal trainers, homeowners, physicians,
and other professionals for the following story:
Working off those extra pandemic pounds: How your household can
build a simple but effective fitness routine. A recent survey
found that 71 million Americans have gained weight during the
pandemic, with some estimating a weight gain of between three
and 15 pounds, on average for many people. This article will
explain, with the help of health and fitness specialists, why so
many of us have gained weight and explain ways we can shed those
pounds through simple at-home exercises, especially for those
who cannot go to a workout facility.
For this story, I can only accept written responses submitted
via email. If you'd like to participate, please contact me. My
deadline to receive written responses is noon central, Wednesday
January 20, 2021.
QUESTIONS: 1. Do you have any recent data that indicates the
degree to which Americans have gained weight due to
coronavirus-related inactivity? Please cite your sources with
links. 2. Why do you believe so many Americans have gained
weight and become less healthy due to coronavirus factors? 3.
Please suggest detailed tips and specific exercises/fitness
activities for what Americans can/should be doing to shed extra
pounds gained during the pandemic and get in better shape. This
is the heart of my story, so please provide detailed
recommendations here. 4. Is it worth it to invest in home
exercise equipment to any degree? What would you suggest to
those who have some financial wiggle room versus those who are
on a tight budget or lack any extra funds? 5. What are the risks
of not taking action now and not taking this concern seriously?
6. What should readers keep in proper perspective here -
especially considering that coronavirus sheltering and
work/school at-home activities are likely to continue for the
foreseeable future? 7. Please explain if and how it's possible
to contract coronavirus a second time, even after you've
received vaccine(s). What's the latest we know about this? 8.
Any other thoughts, tips, or suggestions on this topic? 9. What
is your full name, title, company, city/state location, and
email address?
