The #CouncilOfEurope has adopted a legally binding international #treaty that provides "a robust legal framework with which countries can tackle serious environmental #crimes"

"Developed over two years by experts and stakeholders from the Council’s 46 member states, with contributions from the #EU, #UN, #INTERPOL and civil #society groups, it defines and criminalises a wide array of #environment-related offences."

Europe ‘lagging’ behind on human rights by not recognising right to healthy environment, experts say
euronews · New treaty could be a ‘game-changer’ for environmental crime in EuropeThere is now a robust legal framework to tackle serious environmental crimes, but experts say the Council of Europe missed a chance to protect human rights.

American-Canadian environmental activist Paul Watson, a leading figure in the defense of whales, is now free to travel abroad after Interpol suspended his arrest request from Japan, the NGO Sea Shepherd France announced Tuesday. Speaking on FRANCE 24, Paul Watson says that Interpol has been weaponized by many countries to go after whistleblowers, activists and dissidents.

Trump’s #SEC just dismissed charges against #RichardHeart who runs the #HEX crypto scam.

HEX is kind of a side show in the #crypto world. it's literally a cult that's also a ponzi scheme run by a buffoon who made his bones claiming that everyone else in crypto was a fraud (which is what all of these guys do - they all come at you with the "99% of crypto is a scam but my crypto is legit" but richard heart took that kind of thing to an extreme). he's currently on the run from #interpol for tax fraud charges.

you don't need to understand anything about HEX (tho maybe file away the fact that it's very much a religious cult far beyond even the rest of crypto just in case you ever run into any of the #Hexicans on the internet) but i think it is very much worth understanding the vibe of what the US government just condoned by dismissing the suit. watch this 15 second video of richard and you'll understand everything:
