An investigation by @EkpaliS, with supported from @tigereyefound & @macfound, details how the extraction of barite — a mineral used to prevent blowout during drilling in the oil & gas industry — is poisoning Nigeria’s farmlands, streams, and human bodies. https://t.co/LKp41NXUa3

Although highly significant in the oil & gas industry, the extraction of barite—a mineral used to prevent blowout during drilling—is poisoning Nigeria’s farmlands, streams, and human bodies.

Thanks to @tigereyefound, @macfound for supporting this project

After a careful selection of 5 out of 70+ applications for the Prime Progress Biodiversity Reporting Challenge, on December 5 and 6, we trained the selected journalists. Our facilitators, @kelechukuiruoma & @EkpaliS helped the candidates understand biodiversity better and showed them how to report it from a solutions perspective. On December 11, the trained journalists will pitch their story ideas to a panel of judges and the winning pitch will receive funding for the story.

Reducing emissions isn’t enough to meet the 2050 net-zero target. Achieving this goal would also require removing huge amounts of carbon from the atmosphere. Seaweed has the potential to remove atmospheric carbon But will its cultivation save the climate?

Well done @Violetikong for this interesting and important piece. Information disorder is a major concern, so it’s interesting to see you deploy open source intelligence tools to track misinformation surrounding alleged attacks in Nigeria’s border communities by the “Amba Boys.”

My story this month is about the resettlement program of @Refugees which is designed to protect refugees who have lost the protection of their home country and country of asylum. I got all emotional while interviewing resettled refugees.
The story isn't available online yet.
