Roundup: Fact-Checking the Atlantic, Ending Child Torture, Roe, and Taking Climate Reparations |

The Atlantic and other influential media often run articles and opinions that portray themselves as concerned about environmental degradation. But if you look at their coverage of family planning norms, the influential brand has done nothing to promote restorative or equitable family planning that actually protects nature and – upstream – is instead pushing growth. That sort of reporting fundamentally exacerbated the climate crisis.
Almost five children die each day in the United States because of child abuse, and Florida is one of the worst offenders when it comes to failing children. This is a recent case of parents starving their children there. Why does this happen, at base? We have a family planning system that pushes people to have kids to grow the economy, which disproportionately benefits the wealthy. We can reverse that. Urge Florida Senator Lauren Book to take up Fair Start orders that prevent child abuse before it happens, and to become a model for the nation.

The Supreme Court is on the verge of forcing women to have children they don’t want. Let’s push back hard and rally here when the decision comes down. Fair Start will also be filing litigation to defend women’s rights.
Rich nations are refusing to pay for the harm they caused poor nations through systems that created the climate crisis. But nations and the rich families they are protecting have a baseline problem. They cannot assign and defend property rights while simultaneously violating the right of all to be free. We have the right to take back the wealth and use it to offset the harms, through things like equitable family planning, by all means effective. Help us target the Raymond family, one of the worst violators, to pay what they owe. Contact Ashley@FairStartMovement.org.
