Global economy could face 50% loss in GDP between 2070 and 2090 from climate shocks, say actuaries Exclusive: Report by risk experts says previous assessments ignored severe effects of climate crisis

The math is clear. There is no wealth to be preserved, and no profits to be had on a planet that’s burning, drowning, and collapsing. Investing in false solutions and ignoring the climate emergency isn’t just a moral failureβ€”it’s economic self-sabotage. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Their water taps ran dry when Meta built next door In the race to develop AI, tech giants are building data centers that guzzle up water, which has led to problems for people who live nearby.

Communities around data center hot spots including Texas, Colorado, Arizona, Louisiana, and the United Arab Emirates are grappling with growing water shortages. Who bears the cost of this so-called progress? www.seattletimes.com/business/the...

As #Meta pours hundreds of billions of dollars into energy-intensive data infrastructure, it continues to frame AI expansion as visionary. In reality, the pursuit of #AI dominance is accelerating global emissions, and deepening ecological instability.

Since 2019, Google’s emissions have surged over 50%, driven by energy-hungry AI data centers. At the same time, its CEO stood front and center at Trump’s 2025 inauguration, endorsing a regime reopening coal plants and gutting climate policy. #BoycottBigTech #TexasFlooding

The United States government is no longer able to protect us from real hazards, such as flash floods, because it’s shifting funds to fake hazards, such as a non-existent immigrant crime wave. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/05/u...

We spray painted β€œBoycott” and β€œTim + Trump = Toxic” on the Apple store’s iconic glass entrance on 5th Ave.

Why? Because Tim Cook showed up smiling at Trump’s 2025 inaugurationβ€” but hasn’t said a word while this admin dismantles climate protections. This is climate betrayal.
