Today, hundreds of people across the country showed solidarity with Trudi Warner. RT if you agree stand with them.


This is brilliant ... and hilarious.

You dive down rabbit hole after rabbit hole, searching for the man behind the curtain. You’ve seen enough to be convinced that everything you’ve been taught about the world is false, and now it’s just a matter of finding out who’s really responsible for making such a mess of…



I like this thread and agree with a lot of it. But it claims that there is an identifiable group of "powerful and wealthy" and that they "control our societies". I prefer the perspective that our societies are complex systems with emergent properties - no one is in control.

My take on the current bizarre climate crisis denial, and the general political situation, in both the UK and around the world - is that the powerful and wealthy who control our societies - have totally lost their vision, their raison d'etre. 1/🧵

funny - we are in a society where our hereditary monarchy is more legitimate than our elected government (and cares more too).


...so what Chouinard has done is give a small stake to a type of guardian shareholder, to preserve the mission and values. This is similar to the steward-ownership model promoted by the Purpose Foundation.


bbc.co.uk/news/business-… This is brilliant, and typical of the man. The structure is interesting. It is not unheard of for founders to give their shares to a not-for-profit (Bosch, AS Moller-Maersk...). But not-for-profits rarely make the best owners of a business....


This completely aligns with my observations over the years of what leads people to bring a lawsuit.


talking about "fixing" the economy without addressing our broken political system is like talking about extreme weather without mentioning climate change
