Mother Jones @motherjones.com · 04/09/2025
This week, the White House's official Instagram posted an edited photo of Rosie O' Donnell, threatening to revoke the comedian's citizenship yet again. Once upon a time, this would've been a huge scandal. Today, it's just a part of the US government's official voice: Cruel, gross, and weird.

This is Mertarvik, Alaska, population 300. It’s a new town. Its residents, the vast majority of whom are Yup’ik, began moving in around 2019. The move was by necessity: The nearby village where many residents previously lived, Newtok, is sinking, its riverbanks eroding. THREAD 🧵

Almost everywhere you look - soil, oceans, forests, stoves, other tech - the carbon credits market is fatally compromised by junk science, over-claiming and imperatives of profit. The "market" (a term used as code for financialisation and economic power) is not going to solve our existential crisis.
