With climate and plastic negotiations sabotaged once again by industry lobbyists, communities across the globe recovering from more frequent and devastating climate disasters, and the rights of those who speak out against powerful entities under increasing threat, I won’t sugarcoat it — 2024 is ending on a menacing note.
Accountability matters more than ever. People are still showing up to protest and make their voices heard. Communities are still taking goliath corporations to court. Investigators and reporters are still exposing the truth and those who try to bury it.
Here at ExxonKnews, we worked to report on some of the emerging trends in these ongoing stories and bring new details to light. I’m particularly grateful to our news partners and collaborators who helped to amplify that work — and to you, our readers.
