Smog Summer
Top Story: Smog Summer
These days, there are so many amazing resources out there for journalists to take advantage of.
But finding them can be pretty overwhelming.
So, this summer Reporting Right is going to help you sift through some of what we have been discovering.
This week, we're bringing you the cool — very smart — cats at Desmog, the hard-hitting investigative journalism site that polluters love to hate.
Why? Because Desmog works hard to fight climate disinformation with lots of incredible reporting it is always eager to share with other reporters and media sites.
Remember, we’re all environmental reporters, now!
Here’s executive editor Brendan Demelle on sharing the good stuff.
“We believe in radical openness to foster collaboration rather than competition between journalists…Feel free to get in touch any time via editor@desmog.com or Signal.”
What’s so great about Desmog?
You can keep up to date with the Desmog weekly newsletter
You can find info on the DeSmog databases on everything from air pollution lobbyists in your backyard, to info on folks spreading climate disinformation to big environmental polluters that may actually be working on your beat.
Archival stories on everything from corporate “greenwashing,” to Jordan Peterson and why he hates the Earth.
