My comment is not really related to climate warming, but it reminds me of a couple of things I thought about yesterday.

I think corporates and social and environmental consciousness exclude each other. “‘but of a deliberate criminal effort by the oil companies and auto manufacturers to subvert the free market and rig the system in favor of their products.
