In addition to providing legal services to climate scientists and researchers against whom legal action is taken or is threatened, CSLD educates members of the scientific community about their rights and responsibilities with regard to legal issues that imact their work and provides information related to legal actions taken against scientists. According to CSLD, legal action has been taken against climate scientists by politically motivated think tanks and legal foundations in an effort to silence the scientists. Such litigation can intimidate scientists and waste their valuable time so they have less time for their research. According to CSLD, such legal attacks have intensified against climate scientists in recent years, and salaries earned by academicians and researchers are often inadequate to pay for litigation defending against corporate funded law firms and institutes. ref name bare url CSLD is funded entirely through private donation s.

PEER serves as a resource to potential government whistleblowers , allowing them to anonymously expose environmental wrongdoings and assisting them in redressing agency retaliation. Founded in 1996, PEER operates primarily by investigating claims from public employees about government environmental misconduct.
