Founded in 2007, Inside Climate News is a Pulitzer Prize-winning, nonpartisan reporting on the biggest crisis facing our planet.

We're the oldest and largest dedicated climate newsroom in the nation. We are nonprofit and non-partisan and exist to publish essential reporting, investigation, and analysis about the biggest crisis facing our planet. We watchdog government, industry and advocates and hold them accountable for their policies and actions. We counter misinformation, hold polluters responsible, expose environmental injustice and scrutinize solutions. We have earned many of the most prestigious awards in journalism, including the Pulitzer Prize. 

Our newsroom maintains a focus on environmental injustice, consistently examining how climate change disproportionately burdens communities of color and vulnerable populations. Through our fellowship program, we also provide hands-on newsroom experience for emerging reporters wanting to specialize in climate, environment and justice reporting. 

We rely wholly on grants from philanthropies and donations from individuals to pay for operations. We are a 501(c)3 public charity and make our work available without a paywall to ensure that anyone can read it, wherever they are. We also provide our stories to media partners for free to sustain the practice of environmental journalism, support local newsrooms and improve public understanding of science, health and the environment in communities across the nation, through ICN Local.
