In 2020, more than a dozen science news releases and scores of opinion articles were authored or co-authored and distributed for clients in Toronto, Montreal, and Hamilton, Canada; Stockholm, Bonn, New York, Paris, and Kuala Lumpur. Some warned of emerging problems, others celebrated breakthroughs; all included new insights and hopeful ways forward.
Dominant themes this year were biodiversity, COVID-19, climate, energy, wastewater, electronic waste, and DNA (in the oceans and in art). Articles based on the releases, published at thousands of online news sites around the world, generated a potential 29 billion impressions, with many more people reached via newspapers, radio and TV
With thanks to the researchers and collaborators behind these stories, and to the many journalists who covered them, the following releases were the most noted this year.
