AMAZON -DID YOU KNOW?

 

   AMAZON - DID YOU KNOW?

Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon is the richest man in the world and in July 2021 it was reported that he became the first trillionaire in the world! If you want to visualize how much money that is- think about how long it would take to dig a million holes  2000 times and fill each one with a million dollars!  Not only did he not pay any taxes, whatsoever, last year, (2019) but through a series of tax loop holes with complete disregard for the survival of the American economy , this self- serving CEO readily collected  129 million dollars back from the US government.

His employees make a measly $ 28, 465 per year! 

 

He has been described as a “cold blooded corporate titan”.

 Every time you buy from Amazon you are contributing to the demise of the local businesses in your town.

For every single job Amazon creates, 2 jobs, often much better, are lost in your local community.


Bezos has added $67.4 billion to his net worth so far in 2020 as of Aug. 12 or over a span of roughly seven and a half months. He is making about $8.99 billion a month or $2.25 billion per week in 2020.

His employees make a measly $ 28, 465 per year! 

 

 

The description of Jeff Bezos as a “cold blooded corporate titan “could quickly be erased from the history books.  He could quickly be referred to as the” superhero without a cape” by making the right decision.

Can you imagine the profound life- changing impacts for all of us  here on Earth, if Jeff Bezos donated his monthly earning of almost 9 billion dollars a month toward green  technologies and bold initiatives to tackle global overheating?

We, the people actually have the power to urge him to do the right thing! We all have to let him know that we will buy nothing from Amazon until he does the right thing!  Jeff Bezos must immediately start to financially support innovative solutions to mitigate global overheating!  

How?  I have confident young brilliant minds will have the logistic strategies to tell the world how to force Jeff Bezos to do the right thing!

Why We Should Curb Our Use of Bottled Water

  Why We Should Curb Our Use of Bottled Water Globally 154 billion litres of bottled water was consumed in 2004.  This was up 57% from five years earlier.  In 2006, an astounding 30% of people in Ontario who had access to regularly inspected municipal water supply primarily drank bottled water.  Many people believe that bottled water is purer and safer than tap water. Before buying your next bottle of water please consider the following facts: Some bottled water actually comes from municipal water supplies, so you are paying twice for the same water. The City of Toronto inspects its water every four hours. Bottling plants are inspected only once every 3-6 years! Some studies have found concentrations of arsenic and mercury in bottled water. Bacteria in bottled water can multiply very quickly when stored over long periods or exposed to intense heat. Our oil supplies are peaking and gas prices are sky rocketing, making plastic bottles

DON'T TREAT MOTHER EARTH LIKE A GIGANTIC GARBAGE BIN

 DON'T  TREAT MOTHER EARTH LIKE A GIGANTIC GARBAGE BIN On Sunday, October 15, the Barrie Garden Club ventured out on a dark, dreary, and drizzly day to pick up litter, along Highway 26 close to Wilson Avenue. As I was picking up all kinds of litter such as license plates, chairs, discarded clothing, plastic bags, lots  of cigarette butts, and a myriad of discarded coffee containers, I began to reflect on all the problems triggered by litter. Here in Canada, we are very lucky to have an organized system where most municipalities and cities  make sure that there are regular pick-ups for your garbage, compost, and recyclables. So it boggles my mind why so many Canadians do not use the readily provided containers, but instead  treat Mother Earth like a gigantic garbage bin. I simply cannot understand when someone buys a cup of coffee, they then go for a long hike, they  manage to carry the cup full of coffee, but the minute it’s empty, they simply cannot manage to carry  it back home a
