Job Description The Washington Post is looking for a talented visual storyteller to anchor our Climate Lab column, a biweekly exploration of the forces shaping the planet that uses data, visualizations, incisive writing and personalization to inform our audience. Over the past year, the column has explored a wide range of subjects that have resonated strongly - from where Americans prefer sprawl over 15-minute cities and declining bird populations to the accuracy of weather forecasts and where trees are migrating because of climate change. The goal of Climate Lab is to surface revelatory insights and ideas about science, nature, climate and the environment, energy and related subjects and then use the full range of modern storytelling tools to offer readers an accessible, riveting experience. The next Climate Lab columnist should be an intellectual omnivore, express a fierce desire to experiment and share our sense of urgency. This person is an important member of Climate & Environment's visual storytelling team and often collaborates with colleagues on that team as well as across the department.
