As Middle East correspondent, she covered the Palestinian intifada in 2000-2002, and in 2003 was one of the few western reporters based in Baghdad covering the United States invasion of Iraq. She became The Guardian"s United States environment correspondent in 2009.

Goldenberg reported on many military conflicts early in her career, such as the wars in Chechnya, Georgia, and Nagorno Karabakh in the early 1990s, the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan in 1996, and the 2003 invasion of Iraq. She also has reported on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, for which she was named the Reporter of the Year by What the Papers Say, the Foreign Press Association, and the London Press Club.
As The Guardian"s United States environmental correspondent, she has been commended for her work on climate change and other environment issues. She has said her beat entails working in a "highly combustible atmosphere" similar to the one she experienced when reporting on the Israel-Palestine conflict.
