We need a plant-based food system:
In a study asking 200 leading climate & food-system scientists (1/2 IPCC authors), livestock GHGs & herd sizes must peak now & fall ~60% by 2036
85% agreed that major shifts plant-based are essential, esp in rich countries

Please watch and share as Starbucks baristas demonstrate outside the company's biggest distribution hub.
They're on DAY 7 of their strike. Baristas and their allies are protesting Starbucks’ serious and unresolved unfair labor practices.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Starbucks can end this today: bargain in good faith, resolve unfair labor practices, and stop the union-busting.
Until then, workers are holding the line! #NoCoffeeNoContract

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to buy, own, and sell individual stocks. Period. Let's make Congressional stock trading illegal.

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.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.
This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.
And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Animals are not here for our use, our appetite, or our convenience. They are fellow travelers in a shared world, capable of joy, fear, connection, and trust. George Bernard Shaw’s simple statement cuts through every excuse we invent to justify harm. Friendship asks for respect, not domination.
