Corporate Accountability Lab
https://corpaccountabilitylab.org/
That’s where CAL comes in. We are a team with diverse experiences in labor rights, human rights, and environmental rights, working towards a shared goal of making companies legally accountable when they harm people and the environment. CAL was founded in response to the crisis of widespread corporate abuse of human rights and the environment and disappearing legal tools to hold corporations accountable. In the midst of this ongoing crisis, public interest lawyers and the broader social justice community are too often overburdened with work using existing tools and lack the time, resources, and space to come up with creative strategies for broad impact. CAL aims to change that.

PDF: the EJAtlas, Mapping the frontiers and front lines of global environmental justice
https://journals.librarypublishing.arizona.edu/jpe/article/1932/galley/2191/view/
This article highlights the need for collaborative research on ecological conflicts within a global perspective. As the social metabolism of our industrial economy increases, intensifying extractive activities and the production of waste, the related social and environmental impacts generate conflicts and resistance across the world. This expansion of global capitalism leads to greater disconnection between the diverse geographies of injustice along commodity chains. Yet, at the same time, through the globalization of governance processes and Environmental Justice (EJ) movements, local political ecologies are becoming increasingly transnational and interconnected.

Changing Markets
https://changingmarkets.org/
The Changing Markets Foundation was formed to accelerate and scale up solutions to sustainability challenges by leveraging the power of markets. Working in partnership with NGOs, other foundations and research organisations, we create and support campaigns that shift market share away from unsustainable products and companies and towards environmentally and socially beneficial solutions. To address sustainability, we need to withdraw our support for those companies that are damaging society. If we do so at scale, we can create a self-reinforcing accelerating loop of positive change in global markets – change defined by the most sustainability-focused companies succeeding and forcing others to follow their lead.

Contested Port
https://www.contestedports.com/
Over 90% of the world trade is carried by sea, with an oligopoly of alliances controlling its geography. While ports are becoming increasingly globalised and corporatized, their expansion demands more resources from local territories. When the dynamics of the logistics business disrupt people’s lives and places, conflicts emerge. Many communities of citizens living around ports are taking action, reclaiming the right to their territories. Contested Ports is a collaborative, non-exhaustive platform that documents conflicts between people and ports. It highlights community resistance strategies and is a hub to share resources that deepen critical engagement with the unsustainable effects of maritime logistics.

Is There a Mega Warehouse Near You?
https://www.sierraclub.org/sierra/map-mega-warehouses-near-you
The explosion of online shopping has led to a frenzy of warehouse construction in almost every region of the United States. To accommodate the flow of merchandise, Amazon and other online retailers have built what they call “fulfillment centers” in key hubs where zoning is welcoming (or nonexistent) and land is cheap. Today in the United States, there are 39,116 warehouses and distribution centers larger than 100,000 square feet, and they can be found in rural and suburban areas as well as urban ones. For nearby residents, the arrival of the mega warehouses means that traffic noise and air pollution bombard them at all times of the day, all year. But not everyone is impacted equally by the explosion of e-commerce. Often, the consequences fall hardest on communities of color. Use this map to view the distribution of mega-warehouses in your city or state.

Clean Clothes Campaign; Unclear supply chains
https://cleanclothes.org/unclear-supply-chains
Transparency across supply chains is vital to ensuring that workers rights are respected. Although transparency in general has increased after years of concerted effort from the CCC network, the kind of information brands release about the manufacturing of their products is still sorely lacking.
