Reply to comment by could_use_a_snack in Shell’s board of directors sued over ‘flawed’ climate strategy in first-of-its-kind lawsuit | Euronews by ahivarn
In theory it's nice. However upon reading the article you see that the party that filed the lawsuit has 12 million shares of 7 billion total.
That's about 0.17%. Less than 1/500.
While I think it's a good initiative, I doubt it'll do much.

I work with data analysis in Brazil and actually Lula changed the way they collected data to deforestation.
Idk if this article didn’t know that or they are spreading fake news on purpose because they didn’t mention it.
unfortunately deforestation still happening

If you’ve ever looked at iOS Chrome’s suggested links feed after viewing anything labor market related, you’ll see this in action for English speaking markets. lol Bloomberg, Fortune, and Business Insider are all about stories of that one Millenial who regrets getting a better paying job after getting burnt out during the Pandemic and how bosses are winning the Return to the Office wars (despite hybrid still being a thing) etc etc

I’m going to point out that US raised and butchered beef is a thing- granted still not the greatest thing for the ecosystem, but the deforestation of the US is mostly a done deal at this point.

Yes, but this will take some more time. People shouldn't wait for that before they drastically reduce their meat consumption.

Arguing that only consumers should worry, not companies - yep, corporate grift.
Arguing that you have no personal responsibility, even when you consciously choose things that are bad for the environment - nope, you're just making excuses.
This isn't like when people have to drive because of where they live, and can't afford an electric car. I'm not aware of anyone who has to eat beef.

Remember kids: we can do anything we set our minds to, including cutting down the Amazon.

Let's just all be lucky, that most of us don't live in a country where you have the right to vote.
Absolutely awful take on 80% of your points.

There's a documentary called "The Territory" that came out last year about a tiny part of the deforestation of the Amazon under Bolsonaro. Give it a look.
