"A 2022 report from the London-based think tank #InfluenceMap finds that nearly half of the U.S.’s 25 largest investor-owned #power #utilities are working to delay the transition away from #coal, #oil, and #gas — whether through direct #lobbying at the state or federal level, public messaging, or their funding of campaigns and political parties."

Why are we not surprised to find out who is fanning the anti-#ESG flames:

"The documents obtained by #InfluenceMap — which date back to the first attempts to craft anti-ESG legislation — reveal #FossilFuel companies’ role as the major driver in the fight against sustainable #finance."

Not only finance:
"Eighteen #GOP-controlled #state legislatures have passed bans of ESG."
