We're very proud of our member co-op, Earthworker Energy Manufacturing Cooperative in Morwell, for their work in developing innovative emergency battery systems. They've just got a Vic Gov grant to take these products to the next step! #MadeInMorwell #Manufacturing #ClimateAction

[CoPower @Co_Power_]

Congratulations to one of our owners, @Earthworkercoop, who've won funding to develop and locally manufacture portable solar-battery systems to assist during extreme weather events. 🦺⚡️

[Environment Victoria @EnviroVic]

Congratulations @Earthworkercoop 👏

Great to see more investment in new clean energy jobs & industries for the Latrobe Valley!

Surprised to see electricity retailer #Powershop snapped up by fossil fuel giant #Shell?
We're a proud co-founder of @Co_Power_, a #democratic #cooperative #electricity retailer.

“Earthworker is about trying to breakdown and tackle that false jobs-versus-environment choice we are supposedly forced to make, and to break that down through building democratic and sustainable economies,"@DanMcMusil from @Earthworkercoop @GriffithReview https://t.co/rpWajIDNGp

[Earthworker Cooperative @Earthworkercoop]

Thanks to @JarniBlakkarly for the write up about @EemcEnergy #manufacturing and our other #coops, working to build more #sustainable, #fair, & #Democratic ways to meet our needs. @GriffithReview

[Jarni Blakkarly @JarniBlakkarly]

Very excited to be included in the upcoming edition of the @GriffithReview 'Hey Utopia!'. My piece of reportage follows the work of Australia's only workers-owned manufacturing cooperative in the coal-dominated Latrobe Valley @Earthworkercoop https://t.co/nbxzCkxEQo

Thanks to all our customer members. We’ve raised and spent nearly $6000 to help local customer members and support @apheda’s energy democracy program.

[Earthworker Cooperative @Earthworkercoop]

Very exciting. We've been following, and strongly support the important work of the Hunter Jobs Alliance

There is huge potential for job creation in emissions reduction: @dylanjmcconnell's research showed that Victoria has the opportunity to create as many as 50,000 jobs in everything from offshore wind to public transport, manufacturing and more #VicTargets #Springst #Gippsnews

[Friends of the Earth @FoEAustralia]

Dr @dylanjmcconnell says the report models emissions reduction in multiple sectors across the economy. New renewable energy projects like the #StarOfTheSouth offshore wind proposal will play a critical role in cutting greenhouse gas emissions #VicTargets #springst #Gippsnews

"Workers own the wealth - isn't it time we owned the future too?" Earthworker co-founder Dave Kerin & Secretary @DanMcMusil have their say in this new article. What do you reckon? #economic #democracy #superannuation #auspol2021 #EconomicJustice #ClimateCrisis

[Jacobin @jacobin]

Establishing democratic control over pension funds is one of the most urgent issues confronting the Australian labor movement. Workers own the wealth — isn’t it about time they owned the future, too? https://t.co/pET2ZqFtZQ

[United Workers Union @UnitedWorkersOz]

We can do so much better than this. Australian workers know the writing is on the wall when it comes to fossil fuels. Let's lay the groundwork to allow our workers to lead in sustainable industries of the future with decent and secure jobs. We've got the skills to aim high.

This could have been avoided.

* 10 days paid pandemic leave
* Lifting and extending #JobKeeper
* Secure, permanent #jobs
* Laws against #wagetheft

We cannot be blaming #workers for the fault lines of how our economy is built.

[Earthworker Cooperative @Earthworkercoop]

@theamwu @Murphy_Steve Great to see strong, sensible union leadership on climate, manufacturing, and jobs. Well said @Murphy_Steve

[Earthworker Energy Manufacturing Cooperative @EemcEnergy]

We're a manufacturing cooperative, in a coal region, whose worker-members are proudly @theamwu members, and we're glad to see strong and sensible union leadership on #climatechange & #manufacturing #jobs (it should be be an either/or choice!) @Murphy_Steve
