Inside Climate News is a non-profit[5] news organization, focusing on environmental journalism about the climate crisis.[6] The publication conducts watchdog journalism on climate policy, climate misinformation, and environmental injustice.[5]

Established in 2007, the Brooklyn, New York–based organization won a Pulitzer Prize for national reporting on the Kalamazoo River oil spill in Michigan in 2013.[3][6][7][8] In 2018, Inside Climate News launched the ICN Local initiative to support local environmental journalism in over a dozen states.[9]
