"California, however, recently enacted legislation that could force Walmart and other large corporations to come clean." Hahaha!

But seriously folks, this is an investor driven, capitalist society where everything broadcast is a marketing campaign meant to increase corporate profits NO MATTER WHAT! So I am impressed by this initiative and have noted which companies appear to be enthusiastically taking part.

Good job Gavin Newsom!

Gavin Newsom continues to put into practice demonstrating that he is alert to our most important issues. California certainly dramatizes our geophysical global conditions that threaten our very survival. And of course, "corporate lobbyists" and the Chamber of Commerce are fighting tooth and nail against responsible measures.

How responsible and wise Walmart's CEO Doug McMillon proved himself to be on September 21. 2020 when he declared:

"What was once called climate change is now a climate crisis. Ice sheets are collapsing, extreme weather events are increasing, catastrophic fires are occurring, oceans are acidifying and biodiversity is decreasing."

And, then, he cites 2040 as a date to work toward zero emissions by! 2020 tp 2040! I hope he and all other postponers can find a way to enjoy life with Sponge Bob Square Pants before then.
