About Us

TriplePundit is a digital media platform for the people and organizations making a real impact on the environmental, social and economic challenges we face. We spark action by bringing visibility to the changemakers who see and do things differently, with in-depth reporting and analysis through the lens of solutions journalism.

Our vision

Launched in 2005, TriplePundit is one of the longest-running online news platforms for sustainability in business. We’ve built a global community by reporting the latest on people, planet and profit for nearly two decades.

As the sustainability and social impact space continues to evolve, so do we. That’s why we’re bringing solutions journalism to sustainable business news. Our manifesto: Shed the gloom, embrace the momentum.

Our coverage illuminates the people and organizations tackling the world’s most pressing environmental, social, and economic challenges. We inform and empower readers by focusing not only on the problems, but also on how people are working to solve them and what we can learn — whether they succeed or not.

Solutions journalism is grounded in the belief that solutions to problems are also newsworthy, but it isn’t about cherry-picking good news or reporting fluff. It’s about bringing a critical eye to our most vexing challenges and daring to ask: So what? What now? What next?

We believe what's next is already happening, led by those who have the audacity to act even when the task seems impossible, to persevere even when it’s tempting to give up, to hope when others say it's hopeless. They’re all around us, but we don’t hear about them enough. That needs to change — and fast — if we are to bring about the mindset shifts and system changes necessary to push progress forward when it is needed most.

If you're working on creative solutions in your community, we want to hear from you:

Our values

Urgency: To catalyze change now, we seek out and uplift ideas, models and solutions with the potential to create meaningful impact — wherever they may come from.

Hope: We believe in the opportunity for a brighter future. We don't give up, and we don't fall into the trap of believing the challenges we face are too insurmountable to solve.

Pragmatism: We don't waste our time with hand-wringing or finger-pointing and keep laser-focused on real solutions for real impact.

Service: We respect and value our audiences and partners, and we seek to inform, empower and enable them to create change.

Our journalism

TriplePundit’s coverage aligns with the pillars of solutions journalism. All stories should clearly identify a response to a material social or environmental challenge. They should provide the reader with insight, evidence and limitations to determine the efficacy of the solution. In cases where we cannot obtain some of this information, we should be transparent about why the information is not available to us and why the response is still newsworthy.

We follow the fundamental principles of journalism and adhere to the standards of our Code of Ethics, including:

• Our journalists should be honest, accurate, truthful and fair. They must not distort or fabricate facts, imagery, sound or data.
• We provide accurate context for all reporting. 
• We seek out diverse voices that can contribute important perspectives on the subjects we cover.
• Our journalists should ensure that sources are reliable. To the maximum extent possible, we make clear who and what our sources are, what motivations our sources may have and any conditions people have set for giving us information. When unsure of information, we leave it out or make clear it has not been corroborated.
• We correct errors quickly, completely and visibly, and we make it easy for our audience to bring errors to our attention.
