Natural gas providers suing Shepard Fairey and Unicode for "defamatory" greenwashing emoji. Lots of BS in this press release but my favorite bit might be "illuminating for the public the naturalness of liquid natural gas as a marine fuel." CC @kenwhite.bsky.social

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

There is a report circulating that "Unicode 16 contains a Greenwashing emoji".

The claim is made in an outraged press release, a purported blog post by the Unicode consortium, and what appears to be an article in Wired by Cory Doctorow.

All of these are fakes.

Oh, I see. Lulz.
