April 22, 2021 — Today, SEJ wrote a letter to Attorney General of the United States Merrick B.

Climate change is at the top of most environmental journalists' story lists. But its pervasive impacts and deep complexities make it an especially daunting topic to cover. So to help reporters and editors, especially those newer to the climate change beat, the Society of Environmental Journalists is launching this extensive Climate Change Resource Guide. Watch in coming weeks as we add more pages and resources to this living resource, and suggest resources of your own.
On Apr 26, join us for #SEJ2021 webinar "The U.S. Climate Summit: What Comes Next?" Get an overview of the flurry of federal climate change activity — and what comes next — with leaders in business, environmental justice and the climate youth movement. Webinar details and registration.
