Someone who’d experienced food insecurity told me that being able to season their basic donated pantry items was the only thing that made them feel human 🌶️

📌 #NEOSEC’s 2025 #OceanLiteracy Summit in Freeport, Maine, where I presented research about how Rhode Island newspapers have framed sea level rise over the last decade, & share some ideas about how they can expand that coverage to contextualize it within the lived experiences of their communities.
