In this Q&A for the Sierra Nevada Ally, I interviewed Dr. Peter Coates, a research wildlife biologist with the U.S. Geological Survey’s Western Ecological Research Center.
Dr. Coates conducted a study to understand the relationship between geothermal projects and sage-grouse populations in the state of Nevada. As geothermal energy becomes a more prevalent solution to the climate crisis, their influence to surrounding wildlife populations should also be considered.

My name is Scott King and I grew up on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio. I graduated from Capital University in Columbus, Ohio with a degree in Professional Writing and a minor in Marketing. Upon graduation, I joined the Peace Corps to teach literacy in the Eastern Caribbean where I lived in my host-community of Gouyave, Grenada from May 2017-July 2019. I have additional international volunteer experience in both Quito, Ecuador and Cape Town, South Africa prior to my Peace Corps service. I started this blog to tell the story of my Peace Corps experience while serving in the Eastern Caribbean.
I completed my Master's degree in Media Innovation from the University of Nevada, Reno, in December 2020.
I now live and work as a multimedia specialist in Arlington, Virginia.
Thanks for following and enjoy!
