      Amazon is actively helping fossil fuel companies “churn out more oil” when the science is known that we must keep oil and gas in the ground to avoid catastrophic warming. I documented our romance with oil and gas companies and why it matters here:https://twitter.com/emahlee/status/1104218682253729792 …

      I’m one of the Amazon employees who filed the climate shareholder resolution. Same week Shipment Zero was announced, @bcmerchant reported Amazon, Goggle & MS have deals with oil companies, “collectively worth billions” to help them “churn out more oil.” https://gizmodo.com/how-google-microsoft-and-big-tech-are-automating-the-1832790799 … https://twitter.com/higginsdunn/status/1104044599222435843 …

      Amazon's 100% renewable energy goal is meaningless without a date. Winning slowly is the same thing as losing with the climate crisis. Employees have to give dates. It would be unfathomable for an Amazon employee to walk into a meeting about a new product without a launch date.

      It's also dishonest for Amazon to have a goal of "100% renewable energy" without a date, especially when timelines determine the amount of devastation in a rapidly warming climate. 1.5 vs 2 degrees... even half a degree warming threatens the lives of tens of millions of people.

      Our peers are showing much more leadership: 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 is VERY FAR from responding to the climate crisis at the scale or urgency it requires. Of showing *meaningful* action and climate leadership. What we are doing is wholly inadequate.

      From our open letter: "Our sustainability goals lack context. For example, we’ve set a goal of at least 50 solar installations in warehouse facilities by 2020. This represents only 6% of buildings in our global fulfillment network and a fraction of our overall carbon footprint."

          Until Feb (which is *after* employees started pressuring the company), Amazon hadn't announced any new deals to supply clean energy to its data centers since 2016. (Amazon Web Services makes more money than McDonalds). Meanwhile we were busy wooing oil and gas companies.
