The video is quite long but I think you'll find it worth your time. It includes a few expert interviews and suggestions on how to personally get involved on a local level :)

Just spotted this web ad, and WHO thought using this piece of AI glorp as art was a good idea? AI advertising is almost always BADVERTISING at this point, people! Why would I buy anything from this idiot company?

ExxonMobil admitted publicly that it had pulled out of algae biofuels research entirely at the end of 2022, having invested about $29 million a year over 12 years. It spent more millions, however, in advertising to give the public the impression that this paltry investment outweighed the company’s multi-billion-dollar efforts to bring ever more petroleum online.

We absolutely don't need a shareholder corporation advertising other shareholder corporations every time we get a bus. Be a shame if someone bought a key and started removing or replacing these ads..

This (from 7 months ago) is to be applauded, but as people like @[email protected] quite rightly point out @[email protected] still routinely e.g. have #SUV ads right next to articles about the #ClimateEmergency, so there is still A LOT more to be done. #Badvertising #AdBrake
