  1. Interne documenten tonen aan: Shell kende gebreken oliepijpleiding in Nigerdelta maar pakte die niet aan (NRC kadolink)

    Olievervuiling Shell bleef doelbewust een gebrekkige oliepijpleiding gebruiken in de Nigerdelta waardoor grootschalige olievervuiling kon ontstaan, in strijd met de eigen gedragscode. Het is een van de bevindingen in een op Shell-documenten gebaseerd rapport van acht ngo’s. „Shell heeft zijn aandeelhouders misleid.”

I just discovered that to resign in #Italy, if you've got young children, you must attend to an interview with an italian #work agency (called Ispettorato Nazionale del Lavoro)... on #MicrosoftTeams . WTF?!? How, exactly, a relationshib between an #italian #citizen and an italian agency is mediated by a #multinational company tied to the most powerful government in the world? Also, one that didn't prove very savy, lately...

    after all, it is in the interest of every #government
    of every #multinational or #company
    of every #business
    to be able to reach EVERYONE and
    break our balls with information, disinformation, propaganda and advertising
    as they are currently doing...
    and it"s ridiculous that we have to pay to be constantly bombarded with BS
    so
    internet should be free for everyone.

  28. #Kerala fishermen up in arms against #DeepSeaMining proposal off #Kollam coast

    March 22, 2025

    "The fishermen in Kerala have already launched several protests against the proposed plan to open up the sea to private mining companies as part of the Union Government’s ‘Blue Economy’ initiative.

    "All the fishermen’s associations stand united in their protests against this proposal, alleging that it would bring an end to the fisheries sector in the country, not only in the #ArabianSea but also in the #BayOfBengal.

    “ 'The mining, according to the scientific report we have, can disturb the seabed and completely destroy fish spawning habitats. It can also release poisonous gases trapped on the #DeepSeaFloor, causing severe #environmental issues,' Kerala Minister for Fisheries, Saji Cherian, told PTI.

    "He said that deep-sea mining requires huge investments and heavy machinery, meaning only #multinational #corporations will be involved, making these areas completely inaccessible to poor fishermen.

    "The Kerala government, which is strongly opposing this project, passed a resolution in the Assembly urging the Centre to withdraw it.

    "The Minister said the proposed site, off the Kollam shore in Kerala in the Arabian Sea, is very rich in marine resources and serves as a lifeline for fishermen from Kerala and other states.

    “ 'We have a highly diverse and extensive fish population in this area. The mining will completely wipe out this habitat, severely affecting the livelihood of fishermen in our region,' Saji Cherian said."

  30. Listen, you care about the #climate. You care about the #environment. You care about the actual, factual #globalwarming going on right now. Good for you.

    Now why aren't you voting #socialist? Why aren't you promoting #socialism? Why aren't you avoiding #predatory #multinational #corporations? Why aren't you breaking down local giant corporations? Why aren't you #organizing?!

    No, really. It takes effort. Gtfo out there and #organize already. Have grit, have gal, be a mensch and GO!

  31. I was basically reminded by a certain David today, whose fighting a certain multinational Goliath, that #tech people just can't see the forest for the trees... and also that the social antennas are a bit lose, AND THAT'S COMING FROM ME.

    In any case, I'm gonna sign up for a certain #left leaning party to formulate ideas with, because even people who are #leftwing and #techie have a tendency to represent #multinational and #corporate interests - without even knowing it.
