Australia's manufacturing industry has been in decline for years. Our research shows Australia is last of all OECD countries in terms of manufacturing self-sufficiency. A dangerous prospect in times of crisis. #auspol #fairshare Read the report > futurework.org.au/a_fair_sha…

Over 40 million Americans are served by Rural Electric Cooperatives (RECs), which buy $40 billion in power every year - most of it fossil fueled. We're not taking our power for granted, we're getting organized. Today we're launching this REC toolkit: electriccooporganizing.org

To all cities thinking they might want to attract the next Amazon, or any businesses/jobs: Take the money u might ever consider spending or forgoing on incentives, & invest it on the kind of great city-building infrastructure, amenities & services that people & businesses love.

Xiong'an, Xi Jinping’s new city-making machine turned on

Xiong’an is called China’s No.1 urban project. Orchestrated by President Xi Jinping, the mega-city to be built just over 100 kilometres south of Beijing is also very much a political project.
