Climate
Journalists are producing community-informed, equity-focused climate solutions journalism.
The Solutions Journalism Network (SJN) is building a global network of journalists committed to covering climate solutions, helping lead the conversation on how to solve the climate crisis — and we’d love for you to become part of it. While not all climate reporting can focus on solutions, we believe far more should. Here’s how we’re working to change journalism’s approach to climate reporting.
We believe journalists should highlight how governments, organizations, communities and individuals are effectively responding to the climate crisis. This in turn holds businesses and politicians accountable, as it proves that progress is possible and inaction a choice.
We collaborate with and support individual journalists and newsrooms that want to improve and grow the practice of rigorous, community-informed and equity-focused climate solutions journalism.
On this page, you’ll find updates on our initiatives, resources, trainers and guides. We also invite you to join the Climate Peer Network, a space to regularly discuss ideas and share best practices.
Why Climate Solutions Reporting Matters
In study after study, climate change appears as one of the top issues making people most anxious about the future and least optimistic that the problem can be solved. Much of the alarm-first journalistic coverage has led to people retreating into disengagement and disbelief. That’s why these nine newsrooms are shifting to Climate Solutions Reporting.
