IN SHORT
A multimedia journalist and conservationist, Laurel Chor uses storytelling to raise awareness about environmental issues and reconnect people with nature. Her advice to us all: Explore! Go out and get your hands dirty and don’t worry about having to go far. “I often talk to people about the importance of exploring your own back yard,” she says. “There’s something almost more exciting about finding something new where you live and where you think you know very well.”
