The Federal officers of the TSA are the good guys, working long, hard hours keeping Americans safe. Now, the Trump Administration tossed out their union protections and benefits. Please click the link to send letters to Congress asking them to pass legislation to protect these patriots, many of whom are Veterans.

politico.com/news/2025/03/28/u “President Trump’s latest executive order is a disgraceful and retaliatory attack on the rights of hundreds of thousands of patriotic American civil servants — nearly one-third of whom are veterans — simply because they are members of a union that stands up to his harmful policies,” American Federation of Government Employees President Everett Kelley said in a statement. #resist #workersrights #unions #resistance #federalworkers #DemocracyUnderThreat

It’s a funny time for “abundance” to be on the agenda when literally the first source of any kind of abundance - species abundance - is rapidly declining across all #species & #ecosystems.

Of course, this is not part of Klein/Thompson’s analysis.

Developing Ethical Ratings for AI

[Read on Ethical Revolution]

Ethical Consumer Research Association (ECRA) have announced that they may develop a rating standard for artificial intelligence (AI) use by businesses.

Factors including energy consumption, human rights, accountability mechanisms and workers’ rights would all be up for examination.

Ruairidh Fraser at Ethical Consumer magazine has written a piece about the rapid growth of AI and the groups trying to keep pace in setting the ethical boundaries around the technology.

He says that the following areas of consensus are emerging around the ethics of AI:

  • Safeguarding users from AI-driven surveillance and data misuse via transparent algorithms, public accountability mechanisms, and legally binding regulatory frameworks.
  • The importance of sustainability: in both reducing its energy footprint and in ensuring AI can be harnessed to support genuine emissions reductions.
  • Addressing biases that currently reinforce inequality, via research and regulation that can reflect global perspectives.
  • Somehow placing people over profit in order to not exacerbate human rights violations, accelerate climate breakdown, widen global economic disparities, or ultimately allow AI to generate further injustice rather than benefit for humanity.
