Mashable: Climate change is one of those large, sweeping stories in which history has not made a dent in more than 30 years. Alan Rusbridger, the editor in chief of the Guardian, decided to tackle it in a six-month, all-hands blitz. Rusbridger is stepping down in June after 20 years atop the Guardians masthead, a move he says brought up thoughts of his legacy.

Washington Post: On the front page of its Sunday edition of Feb. 22, the New York Times pretty much blasted a hole in the climate-change denial movement. The story addressed funding sources for Willie Soon, a scientist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. For anyone following climate change, Soon is a fascinating figure.
