Corporate Green Initiatives Under Fire

Companies are now getting attacked for trying to be green. In states like Texas

and Florida, politicians are punishing businesses for “woke capitalism” if they consider

the environment. This is a huge reversal from 2015, when big corps like Microsoft started

aiming for carbon-negative goals. Of course, some companies were just greenwashing,

like Volkswagen’s fake “clean diesel.” While the US fights over its reliance on fracking,

the real story is climate justice. The countries that pollute the least suffer the most

from floods and droughts. In a radical shift, New Zealand even granted a river

legal rights as a person.
