#BloomScrolling while strolling along the #Upfield railway line cycle path
3pm Tuesday 11th August 2026

Lack of safe bicycle infrastructure and accessible tram stops as #Brunswick level crossing removal works start in 2028.
Detours when #Upfield railway path is closed are very poor, we'd like safe protected bike lanes on #SydneyRd instead.
#Critical Mass meet 5:30pm at the State Library on Friday 24th April and slowly riding in a large group North via Sydney Rd and finishing at Bulleke-bek Park (West St/Breese St)

for some speeches (and to a pub for a beer).

Drie jaar geleden bezetten studenten en XR rebellen van XR Wageningen en XR Landbouw een bouwterrein van #Upfield in protest tegen de invloed van multinationals op de WUR. Ze eisten een einde aan de samenwerking met vervuilende bedrijven. [2/3]

I just mistakenly bought Violife fake cheese. I gave it the benefit of the doubt, and the nicest thing I can say is, it is crap.

Zero stars!

Avoid Violife and Upfield so-called "food" products - unless you're into greasy disappointment, I guess...

"After the acquisition, #Upfield redrew its climate roadmap from scratch. KKR also initiated a lengthy overhaul of Upfield’s operations."

This used to be profitable, but "Since 2018, revenue at Upfield has largely stagnated."

Forget about Upfield's #climate plan. #PrivateEquity pirates are not interested in #ESG, only in wringing the last dollar out of their acquisition.

Here's a fiery piece on private equity by @pluralistic, featuring the very evil #KKR:

"When #Unilever sold its plant-based spreads business #Upfield to #PrivateEquity firm #KKR in 2018, the consumer-goods giant effectively wiped more than 3 million tons of #carbon off its ledger. Now those #emissions are set to stick around for an extra decade.

Divesting a high-emitting asset can be a quick way for companies ... toward net-zero goals, albeit one that risks shifting emissions to an owner with different plans for how or whether to address them."
