Great reporting here by the great Jeff Goodell from the frontlines of the climate justice battle.

The inimitable Paul Salopek - congrats my friend.

Well done Rory!!!

Jeffrey Barbee Incredible reporting, this was amazing to read. We also featured it in our latest edition of the best longform profiles: longformprofiles.substack.com/p/the-last-day…

Zambia 🇿🇲, like its southern African neighbors, depends on rain for its #food , #energy and #economy .

But it hasn’t gotten enough this year, and likely won’t in the future, a victim of a #climatecrisis it didn’t cause.

Thanks for the mention on our story The Syllabus Very proud to have put this out with Andy Rowell and the amazing team New Lines Magazine

For decades, a Canadian lawyer has helped write laws for petrochemical states — then profited from them. Now, his next major scheme threatens one of the world’s greatest nature reserves.

This Sunday on #CarteBlanche Carte Blanche we join explorer and doyenne of marine biology Dr Sylvia A. Earle on her most recent trip to South Africa, championing Mission Blue Hope Spots and ocean conservation. Ocean Elders x.com/carteblanchetv…

Thanks Dr. Steingraber - this is a rare look under the hood of how oil and gas deals get made, who benefits, and crucially?
Who doesn't.

For decades, a Canadian lawyer has helped write laws for petrochemical states — then profited from them. Now, in Namibia, his next major scheme threatens one of the world’s greatest nature reserves, report Jeffrey Barbee and Andy Rowell for New Lines Magazine newlinesmag.com/reportage/the-…

How do possible oil deposits go from discovery to legal development, and who really benefits?
Wonder no further... my latest with Andy Rowell for New Lines Magazine.com newlinesmag.com/reportage/the-…

For anyone who writes on the #oilindustry or #climatechange please read this article re: Jay Park who claims he has assisted governments responsible for 49% of world oil reserves & 33% of world gas reserves. He is the #kingmaker you have never heard of: newlinesmag.com/reportage/the-…

For the past few years, a small oil company has claimed the Okavango is also sitting on a basin of oil so big it could rival the oil fields of West Texas — if extracted, it'd be enough to tip the world into climate crisis.

Jeffrey Barbee Andy Rowell In this sweeping investigation, we untangle who this oil kingmaker is, and how his work over the years has wrought himself riches even in countries where his drilling schemes have failed. And we show how the plans to pump Namibia are on shaky (and largely oil-free) ground.

Excellent communication here, well worth a watch and listen for the other communicators out there.

A friend asked me to share this project to help save/preserve Ukraine's incredible wooden churches.
