Environmental injustice has long been a
beat at ICN, but last year we moved it to the
center of our coverage. After the murder of
https://insideclimatenews.org/category/justice/
George Floyd, our newsroom made a pivot to
focus on how climate impacts
disproportionately affect communities of
color and burden vulnerable populations.
Since then, almost a quarter of the stories we
have published sits squarely at the point
where climate change and justice intersect.
That we can be so prolific with such speed
gives us pause. The stories are everywhere in
plain view. Every one of them ought to be an
outrageous scandal. Datelined from
geographies of privilege, they would be.
We know of no other news outlet that has
produced a similar body of work on
environmental justice of such quantity, quality
and depth. Our long term goal is to build a
robust and dedicated team of reporters and
editors working the climate and justice beat
every day.
Fellowship Program
We have also opened up our newsroom to up-
and-coming journalists of color through an
ongoing fellowship program. We train and
https://insideclimatenews.org/about/fellows/
mentor them, and they report a beat we can’t
cover without their help. They emerge with
bylined stories they can leverage to take the
next step in their budding careers, and we
invite their freelance pitches to help them
continue their professional work.
Our work multiplies the force of environmental journalism nationwide. It reduces greenhouse gas
emissions. It holds polluters and liars accountable. It empowers voters. It protects farmers, soldiers,
coal miners, mothers and their children, and communities suffering from environmental injustice.
