      Amazon emailed us the very next day after Shipment Zero was announced asking us to withdraw the resolution. When we asked why? They said, because of Shipmebt Zero. So, we have receipts that show very clearly our actions prompted this announcement.

      When we rewrote our letter incorporating both the Shipment Zero announcement and the reporting from @bcmerchant which came out 3 days after Shipment Zero and described how Amazon was in bed with Big Oil, we hoped that maybe we’d get 1000 signatures in a week or maybe two.

      We were blown away by the response! 3500 Amazon workers signed our letter in two days asking for big changes including the ending of AWS contracts that accurate oil and gas discovery and extraction. By the end of the week we had over 6000. Now over 8300 have signed.

      This lead to the action at the shareholder meeting in May. There were a lot of barriers to going, the biggest being shareholder paperwork proof which was confusing/difficult. (Btw, Amazon never required proof of shareholder ownership in the past. Badge was previously sufficient.)

      Other barriers: getting to another part of the city than where we work, getting up early for tech workers (ha), taking the morning off of work and clearing meetings. And yet, many many came. Stood with me when I presented. And we were all transformed.

      The momentum from the open letter and shareholder meeting inspired people. Made them feel hopeful and part of something bigger. It felt good to be in th right side of history at Amazon and part of a winning team full of heart and grit. See 👇https://twitter.com/hinothedino/status/1176012364497375232?s=21 …

      This lead to the first-ever walkout of Amazon tech workers in the company’s history and concessions bigger than we thought possible — though importantly they don’t go far enough on emission reductions. We’re still doing deals with Big Oil and funding political climate deniers.

      More than that, the world saw the first ever CROSS TECH walkout! This was a pie-in-the-sky dream of mine last fall - to have a cross tech response to the climate crisis. And now it fucking happened. I still haven’t fully processed it.

      Think of the possibilities with the relationships and trust (and fun!) that has been built across tech. Of what tech workers have seen happen. The @GoogleWalkout inspired us. And then @AMZNforClimate inspired the tech climate walkout. This is exciting and very important.

      One of the best moments for me today was when Amazon workers walked out of my/our building to be greeted by tons of Googler workers who work a block away from us. We cheered! Such happiness! Such solidarity! Here we are marching to the Spheres @AMZNforClimate + @GoogleWAC 💜✊ pic.twitter.com/AWlFJ2cA4E

          So, Dave when you see the 4 million people who joined the Global #ClimateStrike & feel discouraged that it’s not enough, I see the 5 people in my living room that turned into a cross tech movement & gotten significant concessions from an almost unmovable company. In 10 months.
