“Whether it’s drilling a new gas well, keeping an old coal power station open, or even buying a diesel car, the choices we make today will largely determine the climate pathways of tomorrow."
“The hard part is not wrestling with how bad things could get–it’s understanding how much responsibility we still have to make things better.” ~@AlexSteffen
From "Climate change is inevitable. How bad it gets is a choice" by @eillieanzihttps://www.fastcompany.com/90318242/climate-change-is-inevitable-how-bad-it-gets-is-a-choice …
Again: Amazon has a choice. Recall the difference in devastation between 1.5 and 2 warming. Recall that "keeping within the 1.5C limit is possible if radical action is taken immediately." Now recall Amazon boasting it can help oil companies "optimize production & profitability.”
From one of Amazon's public case studies: “Historically, [pipeline] routes were plotted using paper maps, and it would take a month to get a route. With PPRO, now we can do it in about eight hours.” This is both terrifying and sickening given what's at stake.
The climate science is known. The data is known. Amazon knows what's at stake yet chooses to firmly align itself on the wrong side of history. With powerful fossil fuel interests which are hell bent on making as much money as they can while they burn down our future.
