      [I deleted a tweet about the number of years re the IPPC report because I'd written 12 years, when it should have been 22, and didn't want misinformation to spread. Will send updated tweet in a moment]

      Amazon doesn't have a plan for addressing the disruptions posed by climate change, and how it is reducing its company-wide dependence on fossil fuels. I'm hoping the shareholder resolution will help change that. 9/x

      In the NYT article, a rep from Amazon said they "have set a goal to power our global infrastructure with 100 percent renewable energy." When? How? I can't fathom an Amazon employee walking into a meeting without a launch date and milestones for their business plans. 10/x

      From a purely cynical, self-interested standpoint, Amazon would benefit from a climate plan: "There could be $23 trillion of global economic losses a year in the long term without rapid action." 11/xhttps://www.theguardian.com/environment/2018/dec/10/tackle-climate-or-face-financial-crash-say-worlds-biggest-investors …

          The writing is on the wall: the old, fossil-fuel economy is dying. Even the oil industry knows this. It's just a matter of time. And time is crucial. Companies that jump on and drive the new economy will be the ones with the competitive advantage. 16/x

          Because Amazon operates at such massive scale, and has a culture of tackling tough problems, imagine the possibilities if it decided to take bold leadership on climate change. And we need bold leadership. Everywhere. Now. 17/17
