Inside Climate News Selects 10 Fellows Specializing in Climate, Environment and Justice Reporting - Inside Climate News

Inside Climate News’ summer 2024 class of fellows will report from locations across the country as part of a program designed to hone its participants’ writing and reporting skills and deepen their subject matter expertise related to climate change and attribution science, environmental justice, renewable energy, and conservation and regulatory issues at the federal, state and local levels.

And we benefit tremendously from their energy and commitment to confronting the climate crisis.”

State of Play

What began as a theory in the 1890s — that industrial emissions of carbon dioxide could increase global temperatures — had progressed to a scientific fact a century later. Scientists across a range of disciplines are studying the impact of the still-growing concentration of carbon dioxide and other so-called “greenhouse gases” in the atmosphere as they call for industrial and governmental policies to slow, then halt, the warming of the planet.
