Arielle Duhaime-Ross (they/them) is a correspondent and the host of two podcasts for VICE News: VICE News Reports, a weekly documentary-style news podcast, and A Show About Animals, which tackled the controversy surrounding animal-language research and Koko the gorilla in its first season.
Arielle was previously the host of Reset, a podcast about technology, science, design and power, from the Vox Media Podcast Network.
Before that, Duhaime-Ross was the first climate change correspondent in American nightly TV news. They did reporting for HBO’s VICE News Tonight, an Emmy award–winning nightly newscast, and covered the politics of climate change, life-threatening instances of environmental contamination, and the effect that global warming is already having on communities worldwide.
During that time, they were awarded the 2019 Science in Society Journalism Award, in the science features category, for a VICE News story they wrote about a predominantly Black community living in a poor rural region of Alabama, where failing septic tanks and pools of raw sewage had increased the risk of hookworm and other infectious diseases.
They were also the recipient of the Silver 2019 AAAS Kavli Science Journalism Award in the Spot News/Feature Reporting video category for a VICE News Tonight segment about the unexpected way glaciers are melting in Greenland.
Prior to joining VICE, Duhaime-Ross was a science reporter at Vox Media’s The Verge, where they were granted the 2015 Herb Lampert Science in Society Emerging Journalist award for their coverage of a radical 1950s scientist who suggested memory could be stored outside the brain. Duhaime-Ross has written for Scientific American, Nature Medicine, the Atlantic, and Quartz.
Originally from Canada, they have a bachelor’s degree in zoology, a master’s degree in science, health, and environmental reporting, and a CEGEP degree in classical guitar.
