'Great for the bottom line but awful for society': More than 350 Amazon workers slammed its climate policies in defiance of a crackdown on dissent

"I am thankful Amazon is committed to net-zero emissions by 2040, but we simply do not have the time. For a company like Amazon, we need to be net-zero by 2030 at the latest," one worker wrote in the new Medium post.

Another appeared to criticize CEO Jeff Bezos pouring money into his space exploration company Blue Origin: "Amazon, the Earth is our only home. Spend more money on fighting Climate Change than on space exploration!""We founded the Climate Pledge, committing to net-zero carbon by 2040, which is ten years ahead of the Paris Agreement.

"It is vital for us as Amazon employees to not be intimidated by this action, and to continue pushing and speaking out against the problems in society that our company exacerbates. Contributing to climate change, supporting ICE, and brutal labor conditions in the warehouses are great for the bottom line but awful for society. And we cannot remain silent on these issues.

Not all the criticisms voiced in the blog post were exclusively aimed at climate change. One employee took aim at Amazon's home-security camera business Ring, which has been criticized for essentially establishing a large and intrusive surveillance network. "The deployment of connected home security cameras that allow footage to be queried centrally are simply not compatible with a free society. The privacy issues are not fixable with regulation and there is no balance that can be struck. Ring should be shut down immediately and not brought back," they wrote."Amazon's last-mile delivery network should be designed to deliver packages safely first, and in a timely manner second.
