New evidence of the impact of microplastics on crops & marine algae show the growing disruption to living systems.

Talks on a UN treaty on plastic pollution failed last year as fossil-fuel states and businesses opposed any limits on plastic production.

STRESS KILLS.

60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, struggling every day to keep their families going.  

The result: working class people die 7 years earlier than the rich.

We need an economy that works for all, not just the few.

everyone seeing how when you takeaway the DEI the planes start falling out of the sky
💥 BREAKING: At John Deere's annual shareholders meeting today, shareholders overwhelmingly rejected an anti-DEI proposal brought by the same group that targeted Costco and Apple. An anti-DEI proposal from the NCPPR received less than 1 percent of votes.

This is what we mean when we talk about corporate greed: Starbucks gave its CEO $96 million for just 4 months of work. Meanwhile, Starbucks is refusing to offer a raise of more than 50 cents an hour to 12,000 union workers.

That's unacceptable. Starbucks must end their greed.

On #MLKDay, we remember that a radically redistributive economic system is one that enables everyone to live with dignity, challenges structural inequality, and ensures resources are shared to uphold human rights for all
