About Canada's National Observer
Climate change, climate solutions, and the climate emergency are at the core of Canada's National Observer's mission and excellence in reporting. Our daily news and in-depth journalism on climate instability and the race to net zero are used by citizens, academics and policymakers to make sense of the growing climate crisis. Our name from time to time appears as a byline on our articles. It indicates the piece is an opinion by our management team or it is company news.
