When will we learn that there’s no such things as a good corporation?

We won’t stop burning fossil fuels until it’s illegal and militaries use force to destroy all extraction facilities, just like we won’t reduce our plastic consumption until it’s heavily restricted.
I’ve believed that for 20 years, and I believe it now more than ever. We’re decades away from either being a foreseeable course of action.
reduce our plastic consumption
I’d love to actually, but most plastics get pushed on me in the form of packaging. I don’t need a six pack of beer all wrapped up in plastic. I don’t need bolts and nuts “conveniently” packaged per five.
I’m absolutely with you. Stop pushing responsibility on individuals. If something is bad and I should avoid consuming things that use it, it shouldn’t be allowed to be produced in the first place.

Don’t be evilGoogle’s new motto?
Don’tbe evil.Pledges are a way of taking credit in the present for doing/not doing something in the future. It never surprises me to see them renege on a pledge. They have no accountability outside a bit of momentary flack that will be swiftly swept under the rug (or dealt with by a reputation management firm) before business will resume uninterrupted.
I mean the whole calculation was ridiculous anyway on how they determined the “net”, so it was never true. It’s just now it’s much more difficult to fudge the numbers since they are using so much dirty power for LLM training.
The fact that people even took those pledges serious is the issue. Corporations will say anything to get positive PR. but once you actually look into all their socially additive agendas, they are always below what we could accomplish if we just taxed them!
