Climate Lab's mission is to develop web-based tools for knowledge sharing and collaboration that drive action to address climate change. We are a nonpartisan nonprofit organization based in Washington, DC that began operation in November, 2008. As a 501(c)(3) organization, Climate Lab relies on support from foundations, government grants, and individual donations.

On March 2, 2009, Climate Lab beta-launched climatelab.org, a wiki addressing issues related to climate change. Given the enormous scale of the climate change crisis and the short timeline to take action, professionals working on climate change often cite the need for better information sharing and collaboration. Climate Lab's wiki technology allows policy experts, development specialists, engineers, academics and others to define a common language, identify the most relevant information, and discover better ways of working together.
