Hannah Chanatry is a producer at The World covering climate change and the environment.

Before joining the team, she was a freelance reporter based in Scotland, where she also worked as a pub quiz host (aka the best job in the world); her stories can be found in National Geographic, InsideClimate News, and Canary Media. While freelancing, she spent six weeks embedded with scientists on a research expedition tracking ocean currents in the Nordic seas.

Hannah previously worked in local news at WBUR in Boston, where she produced local newscasts, reported on local environmental issues, and developed a reputation for brewing exceptionally strong coffee.
