Christopher Mims is a journalist who specializes in sustainability, technology, energy and climate change

christopher_mimsI write for Scientific American, Popular Science, Technology Review, Wired, Good, Discover and a handful of other outlets.

Links to recent examples of my output are available on the homepage of the site you’re on now. Some of my favorites are here. My other quasi-journalistic outlet is twitter.

If you’re a workflow geek, here’s mine.

Previously, I was a producer for Small Mammal, where I helped director/genius/auteur John Pavlus produce science videos for Slate, Popular Science and Nature.

Before that, I was a writer and editor for Scientific American. (also)

I got my start by launching and editing ScienceBlogs and SeedMagazine.com for Seed.

In another life I was a crayfish neuroscientist specializing in functional and anatomical studies via Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
