Reason enough to still start a civil war: ‘Speech that is purchased is not “free.” This fact exposes the error animating the Supreme Court decisions in First National Bank of Boston v. Bellotti (1978) and Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, (2010) in which the majority equated money spent by corporations to influence legislation and elections with a corporate “person’s” right of free speech.’?

Corporate persons cancel the people’s democratic rights to diverse interests. Their right is only the right to the criminal expropriation of capital without any legal consequences! The judiciary has been bought. Western democracy is paying the price for the rise of billionaires’ antitrust monopolies financing fascist cults. Purges, wars, disease, extreme poverty, starvation and Ecocide is inevitable until it is corrected and fair justice restored. A better world is possible if the people desire it. Proportional Representation of diverse interests is sovereignty, not the corruption of one, two or many parties bought by the ideology of corporate capitals and sold by snake oil grifters!

Enough with the 'ORGANIZATION' did something shitty. Some PERSON made that choice, some cowardly board or vp or ceo (PEOPLE) ordered it done.
Place blame where it belongs.

"A study reveals the intimidation suffered by scientists working on the dangers of tobacco, alcohol and ultra-processed foods. Discrediting, threats and surveillance are just some of the methods used by these industries." Very good article in French

...“regardless of your politics, no one is really OK with a corporation lying to consumers”
Except, of course, the C-suite, PR teams, Boards and legal advisors, as well as researchers who know where their funds come from.#CorporateLies #IndustryDuplicity #duplicity #WhoseBreadIEatHisSongISing #plasticwaste

New Report Exposes Meat & Dairy Industry’s Climate Obstruction Tactics
“We had Big Tobacco, we had Big Oil, now we have Big Meat and Dairy. The New Merchants of Doubt is a stunning exposé of Big Meat and Dairy tactics. The report outlines specific and egregious examples of misinformation campaigns, greenwashing, and political interference. It clarifies how industry manipulates the price and types of food we eat.”

* #GFL has contracts with municipal governments in #BritishColumbia too. You see their trucks all over #VancouverIsland 👎*
Ontario-based GFL projects a green image. But a history of fires, water contamination, regulatory violations and neighbour complaints from North Carolina to Hamilton tell another story.

Drax: UK power station still burning rare forest wood
Feburary 27, 2024
By Joe Crowley, BBC Panorama"A power company that has received £6bn in UK green subsidies has kept burning wood from some of the world's most precious forests, the BBC has found.
"Papers obtained by #Panorama show #Drax took timber from rare #forests in #Canada it had claimed were 'no-go areas'.
"It comes as the government decides whether to give the firm's Yorkshire site billions more in environmental subsidies funded by energy bill payers.
"Drax says its wood pellets are 'sustainable and legally harvested'.
"The #DraxPowerStation, near Selby in North Yorkshire, is a converted coal plant which burns wood pellets. In 2023, it produced about 5% of the UK's electricity. The site has become a key part of the government's drive to meet its climate targets.
"Its owner, Drax, receives money from energy bill payers because the electricity produced from burning pellets is classified as renewable and treated as emission-free."

#greenwashing by corporations, especially polluting ones, is rampant. At least there are some vigilant NGOs holding fraudsters accountable. This is a short story about one of them that just won a court case against a French energy company. But make not mistake, much more needs to be done! https://www.juancole.com/2023/04/environmental-greenwashing-totalenergies.html #energy #environment #Carbonneutral #corporatelies #carbonneutral #climatechange #globalwarming #legal

#Greenwashing isn’t exactly new, and it’s found in many #industries .
While many #sports organisations make declarations about their #greenness , the most scrutinised are those with the highest profiles: #FIFA ’s World Cup and the #Olympics . On #examination , it seems that some of the #claims made by the organisers of recent and upcoming events are #questionable, at least.

#KPMG became a #global sustainability leader while serving companies accused of #forest #destruction .
The firm vouched for an #Indonesian company with a #SupplyChain beset by #deforestation allegations and a project in #Canada that led to an #Indigenous forest’s “#death by a thousand cuts”
