Epic disconnect: Head of @NYUSternCSB sustainability forum saying we’re out of time to move business towards more ESG practices at the same she actively partners with climate criminal #fossilfuel funders like @GoldmanSachs @HSBC and plastics monster @PepsiCo. Why?
Very happen to learn @Chase and other large #fossilfuel banks will have to take buildings for which they hold mortgages into account under #LocalLaw97. Their energy-leaking investments will come back to bite them.
Hallelujah @dgelles for speaking truth @NYUSternCSB: #FossilFuel co’s are funding ESG backlash at the state level. So, quite odd that @nyu is partnering with climate criminals right and left to further their sustainability studies. Also all panel, don’t use Right lingo “woke.”
Mind-blown by lobby convo. Corporate hustler @GlblCtzn straight face says that they aren’t #greenwashing climate criminal sponsors like @Citi $(285B #fossilfuels since Paris Agreement) and @ProcterGamble because their $$$ for his virtuous festivals balances things out. WHAT?
Some nerve, @KCCorp, flunky on @NRDC @standearth boreal forest deforestation reports, trying to appear sustainable here at forum. And your @NYUSternCSB aided “green hydrogen” offsets project is a bunch of hooey as it will take hundreds of folds more water than solar/wind.
Tiny bright news: Consumers continue to demand and buy sustainable products. Many more kinds of products are now available. Great, but it’s so telling that the best bucket is only 20% market share for sustainable. So much more growth is needed.
Buttonholing Chair/CEO @KPMG @paulknopp — all blinding white smiles, name dropping Davos while on panel — to say to his face his business model of tax/audit/consulting for #SVB, #fossilfuel financiers, industrial military complex is Evil Incarnate was an activism high point.
Oh, hi @NYClimate @NYCWater glad I got to see you too and ask you and @NYC_Buildings step up your #LocalLaw97 outreach, because property owner pushback is partially due to lack of information. Knock doors, flyer, go electoral on getting #electricbuildings word out. More PR needed
Why on earth is the President of state-sponsored investment fund @NYSERDA Green Bank pushing “green” hydrogen as a new energy solution when it is the opposite, a false solution? @KenzaBryan @FT for asking for an answer for me. See @foodandwater report: foodandwaterwatch.org/2023/02/07/hyd…
