Call for pitches! Looking for stories for the Patagonia spring journal: the CLEAN issue. What is clean? Clean fun. Cleaned up. Cleaned through. Clean clothes for dirty work. Eat clean. Clean waters! Clean air! Clean smoke? Clean smoke!
In 1972, Chouinard Equipment published an essay on “Clean Climbing” to justify the move to discontinue a product that the business had been built on, because it was damaging the rocks they all wanted to climb.
Doug Robinson assigned the word “clean” to an approach, an ethic that placed style/how you did it, over outcome—"clean" is not the opposite of dirty. “Clean” is more than cleanliness. Clean can even be dirty, and more amusing for being so.
DMs are open for pitches. Photo essays welcome! I'm looking especially for stories about rad ways to keep waters healthy and full of fish for generations to come.
Rates start at 1$/word.
