Wait so they could actually fix all their pollution and STILL BE PROFITABLE!?
Jfc not even half their profits and they could save the world? Bloody hell
Edit: my comment heavily ignores nuance, don’t take it too seriously
So, 44% of their profits are in fact 100% of our futures? That money didn’t come from nowhere. All of us will pay that debt. Reporting needs to start reflecting that, and legislation needs to be enacted to get restitution. Until then, it’s all toothless.
(Commented this elsewhere on this article being posted, but I think it’s important enough to say again.)
Oh, well. Why shouldn’t they have to clean up their own messes? I thought corporations counted as people, people who can be compelled to pick up after themselves. Any money they’d lose is money they should have already been spending on this.
They’d pass the onus to pay onto the consumer. Their profits will remain untouched.
