@GreenLabGuy @TerraCycleUK There is a smart group working on these issues now including @GreenStarScott via I2SL. https://t.co/DBx4Yjh4pY Eager to hear their findings! Best, -NK
Bit sobering to read about this lawsuit against Kimberly-Clark regarding labour abuse in manufacturing plastic gloves.

Update: IFAW has partnered with the Poznań Zoo in Poland to provide temporary shelter & care for wildlife rescued from the conflict in Ukraine. Thank you to the zoo's incredible team & those who risked their lives transporting these animals to safety: https://t.co/Hoq7Sdrj9F
@elonmusk Why do you suggest this? You know our crude extractions are more for plastics than petroleum. Tar sands are nasty and poison the environment. We need more alternative answers. Was thinking Tesla was an answer but now doubting…
@elonmusk You confuse me. You’re intelligent enough to invent Tesla, but can’t see how extracting more fossil fuels isn’t the answer. Are you taking the environment & the climate into account? Are you considering the unjust and inequitable burden these extractions have on people of color?
@EcoWatch We should get a direct vote on how our tax dollars are spent. Do you want a giant wall that torments endangered species? or do you want services, like healthcare and food assistance? Not one penny of my money would go towards the wall.
From fracked gas to oil pipelines to coal ash dumps, the fossil fuel industry is poisoning communities and driving climate change. We must move beyond fossil fuels once and for all and power our entire society with pollution-free 100% clean energy.
@JeremyJNichols1 @GovMLG Yup! If we spent half the energy we spend greenwashing actually working towards sustainable solutions, we’d have this thing in the bag!
Went by @dunkindonuts for a latte & requested no plastic plug in the lid bc: it can’t be recycled, single use plastics are TRASHING our planet, & I was going to drink it immediately. Staff said Dunkin REQUIRES it & can’t serve me a latte w/o it.🤷♀️@Starbucks can! #purchasingpower
@USPS what can I do here? I’ve opened 3 formal complaints over the last 4 years about packages getting damaged by being forced into my mailbox by usps & nothing ever changes. Unacceptable!
@IKEAUSA in ur ATL store now and about HALF of your customers have masks on. About 1/4 of staff have their masks beneath their nose. This IS DANGEROUS! If ur gonna have a mask mandate, please follow thru. It’s not one or two...every other customer is massless. I’m out!
@GovNedLamont 🌎 there are urgent welfare concerns for Minnie the elephant at the Commerford zoo in Goshen. Please call on the Commerford zoo to release Minnie to a sanctuary and investigate the mounting concerns for her. Her 2 friends are already dead. Save Minnie #freeminnie
There were many extraordinary presentations. Going green is not only about scientists in the lab but there is a wider impact, as the waste gets transported to landfills in developing countries and affecting minorities. @GreenLabGuy@GreenStarScott @AvaSustain #Sustainability
