      “inaction”… This is how disinformation spreads. As an Amazon employee she should know that Amazon’s AWS (which has committed to achieving 100% renewable energy) dramatically shrinks the carbon emissions footprint of data centers companies would’ve otherwise needed to build.https://twitter.com/nowthisnews/status/1134513118166388736 …

      I feel your tweet is misleading as usage increases on more cost efficient platforms because you do stuff that wouldn’t have been practical in a traditional data center. There is no date on the 100% renewable commitment so incredibly weak and way behind Google.

      And many others. Walmart set a goal to be powered by 50% renewable sources by 2025, and has currently achieved 28% of that. Microsoft pledged to cut emissions by 75% by 2030.

      Amazon AWS ($21 billion/year business) is MUCH larger than Google Cloud ($4 billion/year business) - so Amazon achieving 50% renewable energy for AWS is a much bigger deal than say Google achieving 100% for its.pic.twitter.com/WkMqIyXaLX

      Conversely, it's a "much bigger deal," given Amazon's market share, that almost 50% (!!) of AWS runs on fossil fuels. With NO DATE as to when to get to 100% renewable energy. https://twitter.com/emahlee/status/1119687618738843649 … cc @PaulDJohnston

      1 (cont). AWS is another huge part of Amazon's business, bringing in more money than McDonald’s in 2018. A big part of the Internet runs on AWS's data centers. And guess what? Almost 50% of AWS runs on fossil fuels. 10/ https://qz.com/1539546/amazon-web-services-brought-in-more-money-than-mcdonalds-in-2018/ … https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/talkingtech/2017/03/01/amazon-control-internet-aws-cloud-services-outage/98548762/ …

      Er…with Amazon providing hosting for so many businesses while rapidly moving to renewables, they are helping reduce emissions - companies now no longer need redundant polluting data centers managed by many employees (many who would be driving to work in polluting vehicles).

      Whoa, this is emphatically not true, Amazon is *not* "rapidly moving to renewables." Unless you have some kind of inside information that Amazon isn't sharing with the rest of us? Links? Receipts?

      An NDA implies Amazon is paying you, is that true? Well, good to hear we're making progress! That's why me and 8,000 other Amazon employees have been pressuring the company. So that it does take meaningful action on climate. 🙃

      I will say that I'll wait and see. Out of the top 10 retailers, Amazon is the only one who still hasn't released its carbon footprint (though it committed to only after pressure from employees). We're severely lagging our peers.

          Important to keep the pressure on - not just on Amazon but on all companies and also recognize that efforts toward renewables take time - they also have to make good business sense and be done in a way that doesn’t negatively impact the environment (many green projects often do).
