for climate, boycott all ALEC members (AmEx, Chevron, FedEx, Marlboro, Motorola, Sony, Texaco, etc)

The following corporations are members of #ALEC, a giant far right bill mill and lobbyist in the US who fights environmental protections and promotes #climateDenial. Boycott them:

#AmEx (American Express)

#AnheuserBusch

#Boeing

#CenturyLink

Charter Communications

#Chevron

#Farmers/Foremost

#FedEx

#Geico

#LMG (Liberty Mutual/Safeco)

#Marlboro (Philip Morris)

#Motorola

#Nationwide Insurance

#PNC bank

#Sony

#StateFarm

#Texaco

#TimeWarner

#UPS

Notice that FedEx and UPS are both ALEC members. So naturally you should favor your national post. But if you must choose between FedEx and UPS, FedEx is worse because:

FedEx supports the NRA discounts. The NRA and ALEC are aligned and support each other and support the same politicians (e.g. Trump).

FedEx ships slave dolphins

FedEx ships hunting trophies

FedEx ships #sharkFins

FedEx aggressively claims in advertisements to be pro-environment with low emissions. This misleads consumers as they obviously do not acknowledge how ALEC, NRA, and their other activities are quite detrimental.

All of which are different forms of environmental abuse. So UPS is the lesser of evils IMO.
