Mathew Miranda and Emilie Stigliani of The Sacramento Bee participate in the Climate Changes Everything conference in New York City in September 2023. The Sacramento Bee was part of the Solutions Journalism Network’s Climate Beacon Newsrooms Initiative.
The Solutions Journalism Network is leading a global shift in how people understand and shape the world by focusing reporting on how people are responding to problems and what we can learn from their successes and failures. When news reveals what’s working or promising, it elevates the tone of public discourse, making it less divisive and more constructive, allows communities to see better options, and builds agency and hope. This leads to meaningful change.

Solutions journalism to me is about reminding myself and others that even though a lot of the news focuses on the cracks in the pavement, there's a whole world out there teeming with possibility, with stories that inspire hope and remind us of our humanness.
