As net zero pledges proliferate, they’re often directly undermined by the lobbying activities of the companies making them, according to a fresh study.
InfluenceMap, a London-based nonprofit, found that 58% of the companies it analyzed advocate on climate policy in a way that’s at odds with their stated net zero goals, according to a report published Thursday. The research, which looked at almost 300 companies in the Forbes 2000, said the findings point to the prevalence of “net zero greenwash.”
