New reporting from @insideclimate: An Alabama town has criminally charged more than 180 people over unpaid garbage bills. Black moms and those facing disabilities are among the hardest hit by the policy. Take a moment to meet some of those impacted. 🧵1/9 insideclimatenews.org/news/2…

If Tuesday's presidential debate is like other recent debates, climate change will get scant mention. But there are tough questions for both Trump and Harris on the costs of severe weather and the consequences of the U.S. surge in oil and gas production.

As America grapples with an escalating plastic crisis, the city of Houston, ExxonMobil and other partners announced a new program that promised to recycle nearly all of the city’s plastic waste. Two years later, the program has yet to fully materialize — and critics say evidence suggests it never will. And still, the company envisions similar programs in other American cities.
CBS Reports and @insideclimate investigate whether this proposed solution to our plastic recycling crisis is indeed too good to be true.
Stream the premiere of “Advanced Recycling: Does Big Plastic’s idea work?” on CBS News 24/7 this Sunday, August 25 at 9 p.m. ET.

As former President Donald Trump officially assumes his role as the Republican nominee and standard bearer this week, it’s clear his impact on American environmental protection has been deep and long-lasting.

Think you know what happened to environmental protection under Trump? Turns out the former president changed the landscape in even deeper ways than you imagine, due to his international influence and reshaping of the U.S. courts. @insideclimate insideclimatenews.org/news/1…

This week, smoke from Canadian wildfires crossed the border into the Upper Midwestern U.S. Many counties have issued air quality alerts and warned residents to stay indoors for the time being. The problem? Wildfire smoke can wriggle inside with you.
