The power outage in Spain and Portugal wasn't caused by extreme weather, but by an over-reliance on wind and solar. If the UK continues on its headlong path to Net Zero, we can expect similar failures.

An Excess of Pity: Why We Fail to Deport Those Whom We Should Deport Tue Apr 29, 2025 15:00 | Dr David McGrogan
Why do we fail to deport those whom we should deport? It's due in the end, says Dr David McGrogan, to an excess of pity. We are pitying ourselves into disorder and social decay. We need to be willing not to be nice.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5the link you provide to send email support is no good for supporters in other countries as state and zip code are mandatory fields. we have neither in ireland.
... just put "00000" or "Not applicable", "N/a" etc. for ZIP, and your county for "State" etc.
okay, fair enough, they make you choose a state from the list... well you could either choose "New York" (it's the greatest...) or just send an email to:
hschultz@starbucks.com, alincoff@starbucks.com, info@starbucks.com
Thank you very much for your response and help.
I'm suggesting this kind/style of text, as is on the webpage of the union. It is important not to give the company management reason to dismiss your email, nor to allow them to cast aspersions on the union. Thanks again.

Subject: URGENT: Do Not Fire IWW Member and Starbucks Barista Daniel Gross
Dear Chairman Schultz,
I am appalled that IWW member and Starbucks barista Daniel Gross is being investigated by your company and faces termination for engaging in lawful protected activity. Standing side-by-side with an embattled co-worker and fellow union member as Daniel did is the essence of the labor movement. Retaliating against Daniel for engaging in mutual aid is both immoral and illegal.
For a company that claims to be socially responsible, I am disgusted that Starbucks tramples so egregiously on the rights of its workers. Freedom of association on the job is a fundamental human right that must not be flouted with impunity as Starbucks is doing.
I demand that Starbucks does not fire Daniel Gross and respects the right of every worker to join the IWW Starbucks Workers Union. I further demand that all the IWW members fired from Starbucks for union activity who have not yet been reinstated- Joe Agins Jr., Charles Fostrom, and Evan Winterscheidt- get their jobs back immediately.

Have copied that email and sent it to chairman of Starbucks.
Good on you for highlighting this terrible injustice. I would urge people to copy the suggested email and send it to everyone on their mailing list to show solidarity with the workers of Starbucks.
If enough negative attention is focussed on Starbucks, they may be forced ton rethink or scale down their policies.
Good Luck!
