Astoria, OR – March 1, 2025 – Earthwise Knowledge Initiative, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to advancing public understanding of environmental and sustainability issues, has acquired the Columbia Basin Bulletin (CBB). This transition strengthens the publication’s ability to continue delivering in-depth, science-based reporting on the environmental, wildlife, and policy challenges shaping the Columbia River Basin.
For over two decades, the Columbia Basin Bulletin has been a trusted source for coverage of fisheries, water quality, power generation, and climate change impacts across the region. Under the leadership of Earthwise Knowledge Initiative, the publication will remain an independent news source while expanding its reach and deepening its commitment to factual, accessible reporting.
