There is far more information than we can ever provide here about the many extremely good reasons to consider boycotting Amazon. Amazon touches so many parts of our lives that surely whatever issues you are passionate about, Amazon is likely doing something about it that will upset you.
First we recommend reading "How to Resist Amazon and Why:The Fight for Local Economies, Data Privacy, Fair Labor, Independent Bookstores, and a People-Powered Future!" by Danny Caine.
And though it is a UK based organization Ethical Consumer has an amazing amount of information and resources about why shopping at Amazon will very likely challenge your ethical values.
Please be sure to check out our Amazon flyers on our Downloadable Resources page. Download them so you can print them out and share with friends to encourage them to join you in boycotting Amazon.
And we've covered Amazon a number of times in our Weekly Updates which you can view and download toward the bottom of our main Boycott and Build page.
HOW YOU CAN TAKE ACTION
We'll be back to finish constructing this page soon with a lot more actions to take. One thing is clear, with Amazon growing ever bigger and AWS (Amazon Web Services) building more and more massive energy and water consuming data centers (like Project Blue) it is time for all of us to take a serious look at how we have helped create this monster of a company and how we can help un-create it.
