The Climate Desk

I'm pretty excited about this new online collaboration in climate journalism. Launched earlier in the week, The Climate Desk is a partnership of The Atlantic, The Center for Investigative Reporting, Grist, Mother Jones, Slate, Wired, and PBS's Need to Know. Since climate/energy news generally overlaps several academic disciplines and social interest levels (politics, physical and natural science, ethics, economics, etc.), I think the creation of this partnership is very wise and useful. Chris Mooney at Discover Magazine puts it best:

There has never been a joining of forces like this...but there is every reason to expect it will produce much valuable content.
