Today, Starbucks workers in 40+ cities began a historic ULP strike. But we’re NOT finished.

We're prepared to escalate with more stores striking if we don’t see substantial progress toward finalizing contracts that address pay, hours/staffing, and the resolution of 100s of ULPs.

The RATE of CO₂ increase keeps increasing.

It's not exponential (like the @clubofrome.org 1972 'Limit's to growth' projection), but there is little indication of the growth rate stabilizing (let alone decreasing) any time soon either.

Atmospheric methane increased 7.22 ppb from July 2024 to July 2025. However, due to methane's short lifetime (about 110 months), it required over 153 ppb of new methane to cause the atmospheric level to rise by 7.22 ppb.
