@clive absolutely! I wonder if there is a place for #climatepledge companies and #billionaires to create their own extra-governmental subsidy programs? What if Mike Bloomberg and McKenzie Scott put up $50M for e-bike subsidies?

#WaPo: #BP dials back #ClimatePledge amid soaring oil profits

The energy giant is aiming for a 20 to 30 percent reduction in #CarbonEmissions, backing off of an earlier goal of 35 to 40 percent

A sorry lot of greedy fools in #BigOil $hitting on the future for the vast majority of Earth's species.

It would be awesome if Father/Daughter records or maybe some indie Seattle label put out the Who Is She? version of Orca Card as a single. I'd buy it in a second. Bonus if it helps donate to some local org for unhoused people affected by the Amazon sprawl in Seattle. #music #indie #Seattle #ClimatePledge #Kraken https://www.geekwire.com/2023/seattle-band-says-its-not-welcome-back-at-climate-pledge-arena-after-song-lampoons-jeff-bezos/

🌎 Collective simple #climateaction makes a huge difference. If everyone in Britain reduced their next shower by 2 minutes *just once* it would be equivalent to planting 🌳 181,618 trees in terms of #CO2 reduction.

We're making a #climatepledge for the new year, and we invite you to do this with us. Start by timing your next shower, then see if you can reduce it by 2 minutes. Your change will motivate and inspire others.

Just had a good visit w/ @rebeccajede@twitter.com of @AMZNforClimate@twitter.com, but she said that since its #ClimatePledge, the company's (monstrous) emissions have GROWN by 40%.

40%. In 3 years.

Which means, essentially, that it's @amazon@twitter.com or us. It's that simple.

Gonna lose some sleep tonight.
