🌊The “Building Canada Strong Act” (let’s just call it the Bulldoze Nature Bill for short) is a massive bill that drastically weakens the rules that help ensure major projects don’t harm clean water, nature, and the climate we all rely on. And it weakens protections for workers...

Red background. “Meet the Bulldoze Nature Bill” “Parliament just returned, and corporate interests are already driving the agenda. The federal government introduced massive rollbacks to fast-track industrial projects - cutting through environmental checks, and weakening fundamental rights for workers. Last week: Corporate tax breaks and billionaires shopping for our resources. This week: Weakening the laws that protect clean water, nature, and working people.” Arrow icon in bottom right corner.

White background. “Major Rollbacks We All Need to Know About "Sacrifice Zones":
Allows designated regions of national interest" to bypass core environmental safeguards.; Cabinet Override: Gives politicians power to erase environmental permit conditions post-approval.; Gutted Wildlife Laws:
Weakens the Species at Risk Act and critical fish habitat protections.; 1-Year Timelines: Rushes approvals, cutting out meaningful Indigenous consultation.; Shutting down worker's strikes: proposed changes to the Canada Labour Code, restricting the right to strike.; Regulator Takeover: Hands pipeline assessments entirely to the Canada Energy Regulator - who are government appointed and lack expertise needed” Photo of mountain in Canada.

It’s time for fashion brands to pay their fair share, join the Clean Fashion Investment Pact and stand up for garment workers like Dilruba, Hasina, Kakoli and Bulbuli. 🖌️Art: Doris Rose #Workers

Dilruba Akter. Dilruba works as a sewing operator in a small garment factory. She is often paid less than the mandated minimum wage for ready made garment (RMG) workers. Dilruba regularly works overtime beyond her eight-hour shift, leaving her physically exhausted and with less time for her children. The recent energy crisis has impacted her work. When the electricity goes out, production is halted and workers are sent home until power is restored. Then, garment workers are expected to return to the factory to work additional hours to make up for the production lost during the outage. *Names have been changed to protect identities.” Arrow icon.

Cream colored background. Yellow diamond pattern on the left side. Illustration of Hasina Khatun with sewing supplies all around her. “This is Hasina Khatun* Hasina works as a sewing operator in a large factory in Dhaka. In recent years, her factory has had increasingly unpredictable and extreme temperature

fluctuations that put her safety at risk during heat waves. As the impacts of the energy crisis grows, Hasina and her colleagues are experiencing the effects of heat and energy-related disruptions first hand, facing worsening working conditions and longer working hours that impact them both physically and mentally. *Names have been changed to protect identities.” Arrow icon.

Cream colored background. Red zig zag pattern on left side. Illustration of Bulbuli Khatun surrounded by rolls of patterned fabric. “This is

Bulbuli Khatun. Bulbuli works as a helper in a large-scale, export-oriented garment factory in Dhaka, Bangladesh. At 45 years old, she is feeling the pressure to keep up with daunting production targets. Pressure at work has made her increasingly worried that she might lose her job if the situation persists. At her age, it would be difficult for her to find another job. The ongoing energy crisis directly impact Bulbuli's ability to make a living and her growing workload is a daily cause of anxiety. When production targets remain unchanged during power disruption, it is garment workers who pay the price with their intensified workloads. *Names have been changed to protect identities.” Arrow icon.

Cream colored background. Pink snaking pattern on left side. Illustration of Kakoli Rahman with a sewing thread swirling behind her before looping into a needle and spool. “This is

Kakoli Rahman. Kakoli also works in a large garment factory as a sewing operator. Recent frequent and prolonged power outages make work days longer and more exhausting. Kakoli feels sick and needs to take leave to care for herself and her family members, but requesting time off comes with a risk. Due to the energy crisis, the garment factory is dealing with significant power outages that mean significantly reduced regular production time, which workers are then expected to compensate by working longer, instead of revising the production targets. *Names have been changed to protect identities.” Arrow icon.

#BigTech’s AI is melting the planet. AI data centers are polluting communities’ air, hogging their water, spiking their electricity bills, and spurring a new dirty boom in fossil fuels. None of this is good for people or the planet, no matter how tech billionaires try to spin it. 🧵 #GreenSky

Fashion brands say they want sustainable fashion and claim to care about their workers. But our latest investigation, “Fashion’s Fair Share”, finds that 15 of Bangladesh’s biggest buyers are still putting the burden of the energy transition on the very garment workers they rely on. #GreenSky 🧵

Background photo of garment workers in Bangladesh. REPORT icon in top left corner. Arrow icon in top right corner. “Every year, 15 fashion brands buy millions of tons of clothing made by garment workers in Bangladesh. Isn't it time for Big Fashion to pay its fair share to protect the workers whom it relies on? We found that 15 global fashion brands buy more than a quarter of all the garments made in Bangladesh. We are calling on those 15 companies to ACT, and act now, by committing to join our new initiative: the Clean Fashion Investment Pact.”

Sleeping Shaq meme with Shaq labeled Trump. First “i sleep” panel with Trump/Shaq sleeping reads “big tech companies bulldozing local communities for data centers”. Second “real shit” panel with Trump/Shaq awake reads “big tech companies complaining about people being mean to them”

When choosing between Big Tech Bros and his voters, Trump clearly has his favorites, and they're not the ones wearing red hats. It's clear that he is willing to sell out anyone and anything, if it means helping his cronies in Big Tech and Big Oil (who are powering data centers). #GreenSky
