The Alliance for Climate Protection launched a new project called the Truth Squad. The Truth Squad is a rapid-response team targeted specifically at the New York Times. Our goal is to change editors' and reporters' perceptions about what to include in their own coverage: from the realities of climate science to the impact green jobs will have on our economy. Truth Squad members receive emails once or twice a week alerting them to a breaking news story and providing insight on how to intelligently respond.
