Environment News Service First, Fast and Factual Environment News Service (ENS) is the original daily international wire service of the environment. Established in 1990 by Editor in Chief Sunny Lewis and Managing Editor Jim Crabtree, it is independently owned and operated. Online at: http://www.ens-newswire.com, the Environment News Service exists to present late-breaking environmental news from across the United States and around the world. Full text ENS news reports are featured on Dow Jones Factiva, while hundreds of other websites feature ENS headlines and story briefs. ENS reports are distributed to more than 22,000 environmental media, professionals, educators and members of the general public. ENS contributors cover issues and events that affect the environment such as: natural disasters, legislation, politics, conferences, lawsuits, international agreements, protests and demonstrations, science and technology, public health, air quality, drinking water, oceans and marine life, land use, wildlife, forests, the indoor environment, hazardous materials, toxics, nuclear issues, renewable energy, recycling, transportation, and environmental economics. Many news sources in the United States and around the world contact our newsroom well in advance of public announcements and work closely with us on breaking developments. ENS has been first with many stories over the years and has been honored with four Project Censored awards for investigative journalism by Sonoma State University. ENS provides topic-specific newsfeeds to other news agencies and websites. Over the years these have focused on ecomobility, renewable energy, oceans, forests, wildlife, and plastic waste as well as environmental engineering and remediation.
