      Amazon gives you a credit if you wait an extra few days for your packages or bundle them. But since this would also reduce GHGs, they could set up a customer carbon trading market on their platform. Want a package today? Pay a GHG fee. Willing to wait?

      Switching to AWS from conventional data centers will reduce emissions a lot. The in-house facilities are very inefficient, while AWS (and other cloud providers) are many times better. I don't know the latest on AWS and renewable power but they were making progress there also.

      Amazon listens to our customers. So PLEASE raise a ruckus. Idea: AWS customers come together demanding we 1) stop creating custom solutions for oil and gas companies that help them find and extract fossil fuels faster and cheaper 2) set a DATE for our 100% renewable energy goal.

      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 …

      Re #2: Amazon Web Services made more money than McDonald’s in 2018. Almost 50% of AWS is run on fossil fuels. This is unacceptable.https://twitter.com/emahlee/status/1119687618738843649 …

      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/ …

          And Amazon actively expanded in VA where "The vast majority of that power comes from gas and coal—Dominion Energy, the local utility responsible for supplying most of the electricity to so-called data center alley, only generates 4 percent of its energy with renewable sources."pic.twitter.com/0WFSIq5HxM

          All important points, thank you. A clarification: Virginia is in the PJM territory so we need to look at the sources across that (or at a Nerc region level) rather than one state. Can track national & Nerc level emissions & sources here:http://www.emissionsindex.org
