85 books9 followersEmily began her career in advocacy journalism in 2006 after she had the opportunity to collaborate in a hour-long special on her Sea Shepherd activism for City TV Toronto called “Antarctica: Sea Shepherd Expedition.” She later graduated with a BA in Journalism from the University of Toronto Scarborough. In 2009, Emily became the eco-blogger for THIS Magazine, a Canadian independent magazine, and wrote the highest viewed blog of the year.
That same year she became the eco-correspondent for MTV News Canada reporting on environmental issues.

She hosted four shows, including: “Tar Sands Investigation” (aired December 2009), “Inside the Protest” (aired July 2010), “Mexican Standoff,” and “G20: One Year Later.” Her second show “Inside the Protest” on the G20 Toronto protests captured the number one network position amongst all Canadian & US non-sport specialty networks on the first nigh of airing (July 9, 2010).
In 2011, Emily released her first book titled The Next Eco-Warriors as editor and author, published by Red Wheel/Weiser in the United States and S. Fischer in Germany. The book was a collection of short stories by a new generation of environmental activists.

1 star. I re-read this book for research purposes. The first time I read it, I was in a teen girl's Sunday school class and was harmed by it. This time around, I read the original version that I read in the early 2000's and this updated version, whilst also referencing the teacher's manual.
While this updated version removed some of the most harmful pages (the calorie counting chart, body measurements page, etc.), and did add some more diverse illustrations, I found that the underlying insidious tone was still present and that this version was even more triggering for disordered eating. I would not recommend it.
I have a full review on this book available here, as it was just too long to share in its entirety on Goodreads.
