Criminal Charges Sought in Illegal Dumping Scheme – The Rover Most defendants so far have been small players or victims themselves, but investigators say they’re pursuing criminal charges against construction companies.

EXCLUSIVE: detectives gathering evidence against companies suspected of dumping thousands of tons of contaminated soil on Mohawk territory. This was only possible because of Mohawk whistleblowers putting themselves at risk to get the story out. Local news gets results.

I have left X… like so many, I debated it internally and among friends and colleagues for years. Frankly, I should have left ages ago… I have a research account still for a project I’m finishing (@arcticjourno) but I plan to be more active here!

During trump 1.0, we had to pull down all of the climate change pages off the EPA website. Start archiving shit now, document, backup, photograph, whatever you need to do.
