THE Climate DATA ‘CONCIERGE’
a FREE, quick-response service connecting journalists to climate Scientists
ABOUT THE SERVICE
The Data ‘Concierge Service’ for Climate and Resilience Journalism (#climateconcierge) is a free, quick-response service to help journalists everywhere access Columbia University’s vast climate and environmental data repositories and connect them to its climate scientists. The #climateconcierge service addresses two key challenges: first, many journalists aren’t aware of the massive quantities of climate data and analytical tools available to enhance their reporting; and second, it facilitates expert assistance to identify the most relevant and reliable data sets for their stories as well as help downloading the data. The project is funded by the Brown Institute for Media Innovation.

NEED CLIMATE DATA OR CLIMATE EXPERTISE?
Fill out the embedded form below about what kind of information you’re looking for. Note that the form spans multiple pages.
Do you need specific data (temperature, rainfall, predictions)? Do you need us to review a data analysis you’ve already done? Or perhaps you just have climate-related questions you’re trying to answer but don’t know where to start! We will do our best to help.
Please include as many details as you can, especially how quickly you need the information. We try to respect reporters’ deadlines. We do our best to reply within a few hours of each query.
