The livestreamed downfall of alleged cult Carbon Nation

Eligio Bishop, also known as NatureBoy, started out with a pretty simple purpose – dump the system he was currently in, one that systemically harmed him throughout his life, and trade it for a future off-grid in the tropics. Soon, others started joining and the group began livestreaming their idyllic lives throughout Latin America. But then, things got darker: NatureBoy ended up in prison.


Rolling Stone writer David Peisner joins Crime Story to unpack the story of Eligio Bishop, and the world that got built around him. You can read his article "Inside Carbon Nation," here.
