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. 🧵

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.

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: github.com/nytimes/hhs-child…
