Right now, our small but mighty team of DeSmog journalists is getting ready to head to the United Arab Emirates for the annual UN climate negotiations, COP28. They’ll be reporting from COP28 on how polluting industries — from Big Oil to Big Ag — wield PR, greenwashing, and false solutions to delay essential climate action.

The rest of us here at DeSmog are getting excited for Giving Tuesday, a global campaign in which generous donors across the world come together to give back. The big day is only one week away!

Our readers are an integral part of our work—they send us tips, share our stories, and help us shed light on the disinformation, denial, and delay that stalls climate action. And they — you! — also help support us financially. A donation of any size from you, even just $10, can help advance this work and give our team at COP28 a boost.

We're counting every contribution from today through the end of November 28th towards our Giving Tuesday total, so we invite you to donate early! This year we hope you’ll support DeSmog and our team at COP28 with a donation on Giving Tuesday.
