The Amazon planned to build an airport cargo center, hire 1,000 workers and invest hundreds of millions of dollars over 20 years. The plans were squashed by labor and community groups. https://t.co/biTQpW7qDt
Er, "Advocacy groups & unions involved had said they could not support the lease unless Amazon made a set of concessions that included labor agreements and a zero-emissions bench mark at the facility."
I'm sceptical that scuttling this over a zero emissions demand while trying to exit COVID, deal with gas prices & inflation as war fallout is the wisest approach. Yeah, during disrupted sippy chain & delivery from COVID, Amazon will do some fulfillment non-ideally. But they'd be better off building a nuclear plant and trading off emissions that way
