Climate Voice – Climate Policy Obstruction Scorecard: This scorecard shows how 20 U.S. based companies are undermining their sustainability commitments by obstructing climate progress. Companies exert significant influence on climate policy through direct lobbying and their trade association memberships. The Business Roundtable (BRT) and U.S. Chamber of Commerce have consistently opposed clean energy investments, climate disclosure laws, and strong pollution standards. Oil and gas companies are heavily influencing the agendas of these trade associations. By financially supporting the BRT, the Chamber, and hiring lobbyists who also work for the fossil fuel industry, these companies are obstructing climate policy. It’s time for companies to hold the line and use their influence to counter these positions and the fossil fuel interests which have captured the agendas of these trade groups.
