GLOBAL CLIMATE DEBATE

Sponsored by the American Clean Skies Foundation, we intend for this web site to become a key destination for anyone interested in news, discussion and debate over energy and environmental policy in the United States – and globally, as well. We hope that our news and information service will help encourage that debate and deepen the general understanding of these vitally important and very complex issues.

We present three types of information on this site. We offer originally produced, up-to-the-minute, in-depth video news and analysis on energy and the environment. We cover conferences and public gatherings where experts meet to discuss the issues of the day.  And we are especially proud of our ability to cover live events as they are happening.

We also present programming developed for our sponsor, The American Clean Skies Foundation. And we offer Members of Congress, and several other third-party organizations, a chance to weigh in on the issues with their own Viewpoint programming. The source of each segment of content on our site is clearly identified.

Consistent with our goal of contributing to the global dialog on energy and the environment, all of the programming created by Clean Skies is provided to you under a Creative Commons copyright license. With this license, we encourage you – and give you the legal right – to post Clean Skies videos to other websites, share them with others, and incorporate our reporting into your discussions and debates on these critical issues. In return, we ask that you attribute our work to us, use it for noncommercial purposes, and share it without altering it.

The Crown Jewel of our organization is our News Division. Here is the Clean Skies News Mission Statement:

Clean Skies News is committed to presenting the highest-quality, unbiased news coverage and informed analysis of events and trends at the intersection of energy and the environment. Our journalists focus on providing accurate information, defining emerging trends, and assessing important political developments concerning America’s environmental and energy future. Our goal is to be an honest broker of news and information about one of the most important stories of our time.

Our sponsor, The American Clean Skies Foundation, is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit institution whose mission is to educate the public about the advantages of clean energy and American natural gas. The Board of Directors of the Foundation believes that one of the best ways they can accomplish their mission is to fully support our News Division in its efforts to inform the public about all forms of energy, objectively and free from bias. Clean Skies News operates with full editorial independence in our reporting, guaranteed.

Our site is designed with you, the user, in mind. We hope that you will find the navigation and search functions to be intuitive and clear. We will continue working to improve our features over time, and we consider your feedback to be critical in that effort.
