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?

The Root
Many people have done a lot to reduce their waste or any kind of pollution they produce in an effort to reduce the overall pollution of our environment. Though this is heavily appreciated we forget that even with this effort corporations still shove many single use plastics (and just plastics in general) down our throats every where we turn, whether it's in supermarkets, fast food chains, or restaurants consuming some sort of plastic is inevitable. Instead of corporations having an option to continue using plastics or not, they should be obligated to reduce plastic packaging etc. this would be a very difficult change but it is what is necessary if we want to make a greater change for our environment. By attacking the roots.
