1 million for Jef Bezos is pocket money, he should’ve invest more! climatechangeisReal

Getting a tax deduction?

That $690,000.00 donation is less than Jeff Bezos earns in 5 (yes, five) MINUTES. LateStageCapitalism

Pays A$20M tax on A$1B turnover in Australia. Donates A$1M. Thanks for the scraps. How about you put that towards reducing your carbon foot print instead.

Australians consider Australia a very wealthy country. Why would they need donations at all?

Its a shame he makes billions from business in Australia.

1 million really?

Only a crappy million dollars. What a cheapskate

They are also contributing billions of tons of CO2 into the atmosphere to keep it going.

Wow! A whole million dollars... pocketchange

Neither billionaires or celebrities’ donations will save us, funds are needed, yes, but where are the voices demanding governments a system change? End the FossilFuel industry! Stop financing, protecting, aiding, harboring, enabling big Oil! ClimateCrisis FireDrillFriday

How much is his company getting in return from advertising this? He could done it privately, and in more substantial way in my opinion.

After reading this headline, I don't still know what it is saying

Whoopity do

Shouldn’t have donated. Now there’s people going to criticize him for donating what would be equivalent of $10 to him.

Petty cash

JeffBezos you can do more

Thanks

TheCouncilWolf That's nothing

Wow

Cheap bastard! The way he treats and pays his employees I guess he thought WOW a million dollars, I am such a nice guy. After this Australia should ban Amazon.

Chump change

Pennies

Change that M to a B

¿$1 million aus? What a useless man. PATHETIC. Shame on him.

Respect 👍👍

That's $690K. Come on Jeff, you can do better!

A wealthy country votes for a leader who doesn't believe in climate change then cuts funding for critical national institutions making it an impossible task for firefighters yet opinionated Twitter users think others should give up all their wealth in support?

outstanding!

Kinda sad that I contributed a higher % of my net worth than they did...

This billionaire is a big joke . Amazon employees must tell us more about this gentleman

That's it? JeffBezos don't even pay fucking taxes

Cool but that’s like me donating $10

how generous

That's great! But, how about $10 million? Leo DiCaprio donated $3 million.

Leonardo DiCaprio donated $3 million

charity so that they won't get taxed, nice try.

How about $1 Billion, Jeff? ... pinching pennies 🤦🏻‍♂️

An absolute drop in the ocean.

This is pathetic. $1 million to Amazon is a drop in the bucket.
