We’ve been busy uncovering stories that matter — and our two latest episodes of *90 Miles from Needles* dive deep into urgent desert issues:

🎧 **Plan Sonora: The New Face of Green Colonialism** — Explore how renewable energy projects in Mexico are reshaping the landscape — and not always for the better. With journalist Caroline Tracey, who covers the topic for [The Border Chronicle](https://www.theborderchronicle.com/?utm%5Fsource=90mfn.beehiiv.com&utm%5Fmedium=referral&utm%5Fcampaign=don-t-miss-our-latest-episodes-and-grab-some-desert-gear).

🎧 **The Southwest’s Hidden Urban Histories** — Uncover the surprising, often untold stories of how desert cities grew and evolved. We interview Kyle Paoletta, author of American Oasis.
