Hello, I’m Sarah Hartley. I have a background in journalism innovation at Google and The Guardian with a passion for the ways journalism can tackle social issues. I’ve founded The Northern Eco as a innovative way to share news about local environmental issues here in the north of England. But rest assured, I’m working hard to avoid this being a doom-laden offering. There’s so many smart people with solutions out there that I hope to amplify their work where I can to bring us all a bit of much-needed hope.
