agree. Amazon is not fooling anyone. We're in bed with fossil fuel companies not to "help them transition" – that is laughable – but to make a shit ton of money. And we're taking a big financial risk by doing so. Fossil fuel's days are numbered. Public opinion is shifting.https://twitter.com/cloudquistador/status/1185968418069057536 …

It would be simpler to openly state that there's lots of money to be made and #climatechange isn't actually a priority, rhetoric aside. These attempts at rhetorical slights of hand are transparent.

Can't remember if it was Jassy or Bezos who said employees need to "disagree and commit" on the issue and never in my life had I been more disappointed in the leadership of an organization I was involved in

+100000000000 Do they think employees will just lay down while we knowingly help burn the planet down? They may be able to live with themselves, but I can't. Humanity has such a preciously small window to act before we cause irreversible, catastrophic heating. Unconscionable.

It speaks to the fundamentally irresolvable contradictions of customer obsession, because customers are going to have contradictory needs and there doesn't seem to be any desire at the top to do anything other than say "we'll obsess as far as our immediate business relationship"

Agree. But what about this surprises employees? Arguably it’s been evident for years at least, so the only really puzzling question to me is the lack of organization of employees in Amazon & its peers/competitors.

Um, lack of organizing? Tech workers organizing and walking out is what led to Bezos announcing our climate pledge. Virtually all media outlets gave us credit for this. LOTS of organizing going on. @AMZNforClimatehttps://twitter.com/emahlee/status/1184516132914335744 …

VIDEO! Proud of all my Amazon co-workers around the world who walked out as part of the youth-led Global #ClimateStrike.

“That really showed us Amazon is not taking climate change seriously if the highest levels of the sustainability team are not even aware that we have an oil and gas business,” said @emahlee, who was at the meeting.

  Yep. Amazon has reached a level of complexity & (from a climate perspective) insurmountable contradictions that make it a rather fascinating case study for decarbonizing societies at large.
