Investigations and Data 📈 at @bloomberg @business former @BigLocalNews @StanfordJourn

[Irene Casado Sánchez @irencs]

Together with @jackie_botts, we analyzed thousands of records related to climate finance. We found that billions of dollars meant to help developing countries cope with climate change are flowing back to wealthy nations through loans, interest and work contracts ➡️@specialreports

Heavily indebted countries face a vicious cycle: Debt payments limit their ability to invest in climate solutions, while extreme weather causes severe economic losses, often leading them to borrow more https://t.co/9l5z191JDW

Amazing reporting from @AlissaZhu ⬇️

[Alissa Zhu @AlissaZhu]

Since fentanyl, the overdose death rate in Baltimore has climbed up and up, now 2x as high as the next big city’s. When we first started reporting last year, I knew that things were bad, but not this bad.

Turns out, even city leaders didn’t know. 🧵

[Development Initiatives (DI) @devinitorg]

In some cases, #climate finance loans provide greater benefits to developed countries that the developing countries the system was designed to support, eroding trust and deepening a sense of injustice. @euanritchie in this piece from @irencs and @jackie_botts.

[Katy Daigle @katydaigle]

Wealthy countries have sent climate funding to the developing world in recent years with interest rates or strings attached that benefited the lending nations, a Reuters data analysis found. https://t.co/Wgqh2Q2m3x

[Ian Urbina @ian_urbina]

Exciting news: The Outlaw Ocean Project has won The 2024 Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights journalism award in the International Print category for work published in collaboration with the @NewYorker, a series titled "China: The Superpower of Seafood." https://t.co/INaldYIb6G

[Reuters @Reuters]

A $100 billion annual climate funding pledge included a tacit recognition of wealthy nations’ responsibility to help solve climate-related problems they had an outsized role in creating, said Rachel Kyte, former World Bank climate envoy https://t.co/mWR5ugkoCc 1/3

Use our migrant child labor data!

More children are crossing the border on their own than ever before, and thousands are ending up doing dangerous, illegal jobs.

We sued the government for a huge trove of data about these kids, and shared it all here: https://t.co/lpse7uYK4G

[Irene Casado Sánchez @irencs]

For almost a year, I worked with @esagara @BigLocalNews, @CivilBeat's Blaze Lovell and the @nytimes digging into campaign finance contributions from government contractors in Hawaii. So fortunate to work with such a fantastic team and so happy to see the story out today! ⬇️

[The New York Times @nytimes]

After Hawaii barred government contractors from donating to political campaigns, late-night fund-raising parties showed just how completely the reform effort failed, a New York Times investigation found. https://t.co/IJP6rcpq3S
