How much responsibility do corporations have for the climate crisis and for stepping up with solutions?
Here at the ISCFC we are committed to promoting personal, community, national and planetary solutions to reduce our environmental impacts and boldly confront the climate crisis. But as individuals, we can feel powerless when there are huge corporations -such as the fossil fuel industry and factory farms– that are disproportionately responsible for carbon emissions of the past and the present.
What should we do about this? Do you agree that corporations should do more? And if so, what does that mean exactly? How do we persuade or impel polluting industries to change their ways?

Corporations around the world are a large part of the greenhouse gas emmisions in the world. The large amount of fossil fuels burnt during the production of products is absurd, and corporations need to take action now, swithcing to other forms of production like solar and wind power.
I am unsure if corporations can be persuaded to switch to alternative energies, as the fossil fuel industry is much cheaper and generally successful compared to others.
