A story about western landscapes

Tom Yulsman interviews Cally Carswell and annotates her High Country News story, “The Tree Coroners,” about climate change and dying forests in the western U.S. "It was definitely a challenge to figure out how to structure a story with no real central character, and with multiple settings. My editor, the one and only Michelle Nijhuis, suggested using scale as a structural device, starting with a local story, then going regional, then going global, then back to local."
