Join us for SEJ's 34th annual conference, hosted at Arizona State University! The devastation of wildfires in Los Angeles is a stark reminder of the urgency of this moment for environmental journalism. As extreme weather and natural disasters grow in frequency and magnitude, a shift in the political climate adds another layer of complexity to covering these issues. Now more than ever, our collective mission to uncover and share critical and empirical truths about science, energy, policy, health impacts and equity is vital. Online registration is closed. Registration will open on-site in Tempe.
Even as U.S. government agencies rush to wipe climate change information (or even the mention of the word climate) from their websites, others are racing to reconstruct lost data elsewhere. Case in point is a rescued database on climate risks preserved by The Guardian. The latest Reporter’s Toolbox has more on the preserved database and how best to use it.
Our Calendar lists professional meetings, webinars, press conferences, awards/fellowships/workshops deadlines and more. Apr 20 Deadline: The NYU Stern Climate Economics Journalism Fellowship will bring a group of journalists to the Greenwich Village campus, Sep 18-19, 2025, to learn from globally recognized experts in the emerging field of climate economics. Open to new and experienced journalists worldwide.
We've updated our "Topics on the Beat" pages with new links and an improved design. The resource aims to help reporters with quick introductions to key coverage areas, offering top SEJournal stories and the latest EJToday headlines. Visit our full set of Topics on the Beat on biodiversity, climate, disasters and hurricanes, energy, environmental justice, water & oceans, wildfire, agriculture and the food system.
