Six steps we are taking to confront the climate crisis

Last year, we vowed to prioritise climate journalism and cutting our own emissions. So much for promises: how are we actually doing this?

In 2019, the Guardian made a pledge in service of the planet. We declared that the escalating climate crisis was the defining issue of our lifetime, and that quality, trustworthy reporting on the environment was an important tool to confront it. We promised to provide journalism that shows leadership, urgency, authority and gives the climate emergency the sustained attention and prominence it demands.
