The series shines a spotlight on the Marshall Islands which are considered a forgotten nation still reeling from nuclear testing. Mashable Science Editor Andrew Freedman explains the impact of this project, which features journalist [Kim Wall](https://www.rememberingkimwall.com/)'s last unpublished work since her tragic death in 2017.
Freedman says this report aligns with the company's three pillars of climate, human rights, and social good.

"She could find really interesting stories pretty much anywhere."
