Meg is an outdoor and environmental writer with a passion for environmental advocacy. She’s been a freelance writer for outdoor industry publications and brands for over seven years and has a distinct focus on sustainable product design and environmental advocacy. She combined her passion for outdoor recreation with environmentalism in her debut book, Outdoor Minimalist: Waste Less Hiking, Camping, and Backpacking, published in September 2022.
Since then, she has spent her time writing and covering topics within the outdoor industry, ranging from the best new products and greenwashing to the scientific coverups of hazardous chemicals. Her work can be found in digital publications such as Field and Stream, Popular Mechanics, and GearJunkie, and her environmental journalism extends into podcast production with her original shows, Outdoor Minimalist and Forever Chemicals.
