Energy Fields documents the trip of a lifetime. John Atkinson drove across the United States on a voyage to an artistic residency at the Ucross Foundation in the state of Wyoming. A clean energy and climate analyst by day, Atkinson used the U.S. Energy Atlas as his map to chart a course from his home in […]

Throughout that period, though, the core idea and drive have remained the same, even if the pieces and structures have shifted somewhat. I’m excited the site launched a handful of new columns and […]
