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?

Green Factories
Factories are the second largest factor in carbon emissions as they release a significant amount of carbon into the air. But we can’t just eliminate factories, so we have to make them more sustainable. Factories usually cut corners on managing waste which hurts the environment so we need stricter rules on the removal of waste and recycling. factories also use a lot of natural gas to them running so converting natural gas to more renewable energy would lower their emissions immensely.
