Political lean describes where an outlet sits within the politics of its own country. It is never a position on a single global scale.

Political lean is comparable inside one country and not across them, which is why the bar groups by country first. Publicly funded broadcasters are not marked as state-linked.

The owner of each outlet is listed as a matter of record, not as a judgement about the outlet.

More than 250 organizations and companies have joined the State Pact against the Climate Emergency since July 27. According to the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge, the signatories include a diverse range of entities such as trade unions, professional associations, research centers, and environmental groups. Notable participants from the agricultural sector include the UPA, COAG, and the National Federation of Irrigation Communities. Other supporters include WWF, SEO/BirdLife, and various companies, including some listed on the IBEX.

Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez announced the proposal in September 2025 following a series of fires in August of the previous year. The current proposal consists of 15 axes of action and was developed following a participation process that gathered nearly 4,000 contributions. Vice President and Minister Sara Aagesen stated that a broad agreement is necessary to face the challenges of the century.

Coverage of the event differs in framing based on political lean. A center left source emphasizes the rejection of the pact by the PP party. In contrast, a center right source focuses on the broad diversity of the supporting entities, specifically highlighting the participation of the business sector and the IBEX.
