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?

Corporate Responsibility
Corporations emit high levels of greenhouse gases due to their mass consumption of fossil fuels. This leads to an increase in global warming, which is impacting the planet's climate systems in a variety of negative ways. But Corporations still refuse to take responsibility and invest in our environments well being because they value profits over people. They instead push the idea of individuals taking responsibility by reducing plastics use and consuming more substantially which is important but doesn't compare to the impact that corporations can make by becoming carbon neutral.
