Fine issued to Trans Mountain pipeline for harming birds reduced from $88K to $4K - #FingerWagging by #CorporateCaptured reviewers.

"In this project—which is expected to cost $21.4 billion—a $4,000 fine is nothing but a slap on the wrist (equating to less than 0.00002% of their projected expenses)" - Sierra Club Atlantic

If I could offer one piece of advice to our new friends on #Mastodon after remembering to wear sunscreen.

That would be to #boost stuff you find interesting or good or funny or lovely or maybe all of those things.

There will be lots of people looking for people to follow and this will be a great way to uplift them.

Second point: #FingerWagging about #NotDoingItRight can be an Olympic sport in these here parts.

I've been advised by the lovely @Sardonicus that there's a caveat to my #Friday #fingerwagging toot:

That caveat is not to be a dick to those who don't or can't add alt text. Some folx cannot see colours and are well within their rights to block anyone who pulls them up on their approach to alt text.

Live and let live, mmkay? Then we're cool.
