Buying carbon credits to fight climate change? Here’s what to know

#CarbonCredits sold on the voluntary market are under scrutiny for not offsetting #Greenhouse#Gas emissions as claimed.

One investigation concluded that over 90 percent of carbon credits issued for #rainforest protection by the largest carbon credit certification body “had no benefit to the climate.” Two reports published in 2023 found that credits for forest-based projects in North America, South America, Africa and Asia may in fact #increase net #emissions.

Man from #uncontacted #Indigenous tribe emerges in Amazon, and villagers demonstrate a lighter

The individual is believed to belong to a group first seen in 2021.

My latest video is live! This week's video features a *hike* through the rainforest on the island of Martinique in the Caribbean.

It's super chill and relatively short. If you're looking for 15 minutes of calm to reverse a long Tuesday, look no further.

"Historic #HumanRights Ruling: The Inter-American Court of Human Rights ruled that Ecuador violated the rights of uncontacted Indigenous peoples by permitting #OilDrilling in their territories. The ruling reinforces #IndigenousSovereignty, mandates environmental protections, and sets a legal precedent for Indigenous rights."
