Environmental Concerns Over Huon Aquaculture's Antibiotic Use.
A recent EPA report reveals that Huon Aquaculture administered over a tonne of antibiotics during a bacterial outbreak earlier this year. Alarmingly, wild fish near their Tasmanian lease showed antibiotic levels up to 12 times the legal limit for commercially sold salmon. While public health officials state there's no immediate risk to consumers, environmental groups and the public are raising serious concerns about aquaculture practices and marine ecosystem health.

STARBUCKS ACCUSED OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING
Eight Brazilian people have decided to sue Starbucks in the United States for violating the law against human trafficking.
Supporting them is lawyer Terry Collingsworth, who is already in a fight with other multinationals.

@eco-g Standard accounting for many multinational corporations. This lack of oversight and poor regulation is not an accident. It's the result of decades of collusion and influence between government and corporate grifters. #taxation #loopholes #coffee #multinationals

Fifth-generation farmers fighting to save their land
The Byrne family in western Victoria refuses to surrender their farm to a US-backed mineral sands mining company. They want to keep farming and pass their land on to future generations—but under Australian law, their options are limited.
Experts say landowners who resist approved mines face long, expensive legal battles with little chance of success. Is this what fair land rights look like?

Last month, Tasmania faced an unprecedented crisis as over 5,500 tonnes of dead salmon were sent to waste facilities, according to the Environment Protection Authority. This staggering loss represents about 6% of the industry's annual production.

Not a peep from Australia's mainstream media! The Accountability and Corporate Transparency Coalition has praised the Australian government for passing world-leading tax transparency laws. These laws will require many large multinationals, including up to half of all major U.S. firms, to publicly report country-by-country tax and financial data for high-risk jurisdictions linked to profit shifting and tax avoidance. A big step forward for accountability!

The FACT Coalition · FACT Applauds Australia’s Passage of Groundbreaking New Tax Transparency Requirements for Major MultinationalsMany companies, including as many as half of all large U.S. multinationals, will soon begin publicly reporting tax and other financial information for a range of high-risk jurisdictions typically associated with profit shifting and related tax avoidance schemes.

de Volkskrant · Multinationals worden steeds handiger in belastingontwijking, EU-maatregelen ontoereikendOndanks maatregelen ontwijken multinationals nog steeds belasting in Europa, onder meer via Nederland. EU-landen lopen daardoor tot 100 miljard euro per jaar mis. Brussel moet meer doen om de mazen te dichten, zegt de Europese Rekenkamer.
