    “Promise to shareholders” outweighs “promise to environment” and that’s why we were being cooked alive this summer.

    There’s no actual incentive for a company to do the right thing if the wrong thing gives them more money, and I realize this is such a simple notion that everyone’s gonna say “well duh”, but I am just going to keep repeating it because we desperately need some sort of regulations around this sort of shit.

      Ideally forfeiture of all profits for that duration of the crime.

      Hit’em where it hurts and give a real, scale-able punishment.

      It’s fine. It’s only been over 100°F for 26 straight days with no end in the 10 day forecast.
