Drugs Are Poisoning Tulum’s Waters

Tulum, Mexico — VICE arrives in this natural paradise formed over thousands of years of geological change, creating otherworldly rock pools and ancient, interconnected cave formations. But we’re not the only ones — tourism is flourishing here, with a new generation of “eco-travellers” and influencers, eager to share their holiday amongst the hidden rainforest cenotes to the rest of the world, bringing gangsters from nearby Cancun with them. Now a newer problem has been detected - cocaine traces found in these ancient rockpools hints at the interconnectivity of the water system here, the same one that connects the untreated sewage from the newly built eco-resorts where the tourists stay, and the rockpools they’ve travelled so far to enjoy. Ironically, this influx of tourists is destroying the natural beauty and ecosystem that attracted them here in the first place, leaving them swimming in their own excrement.

All the Ways Republicans Are Trying to Make Protesting a Crime

So far this year, GOP lawmakers in 32 states have introduced over 80 anti-protest bills. This segment is a round-up of those bills, from the ones that could take your student loans to the ones that could make it a crime to taunt a cop.

The Consequences of Recording Police Killings

This year, through the end of last month there were only six days when police didn’t kill someone. Most of the time, those deaths happen off-camera. When they don’t, the people who pressed record, or even just shared the footage, are often putting their own lives in danger. VICE News checked in with some of them.
