    People’s lives, communities, and the environment are being destroyed by climate breakdown. Big corporations are a central force in driving the crisis. But they don’t want you to know that. They don’t want you to know how they let ordinary people bear the brunt of their abuses. How major financiers bankroll climate-wrecking agribusiness. How meat packers source beef from ranchers complicit in deforestation and land grabs. We uncovered these abuses of corporate power. Now we demand accountability.

    We need to put power back in the hands of ordinary people to prevent climate disaster. That starts with bringing big business’ role in the climate crisis out into the open. We know that won’t be easy. Our investigative journalists have to dig deep to uncover the facts and cut through the noise. But story by story we’ll see the whole system shift. We won’t stop until people and governments see through the climate lies of big business, and there are laws in place to hold corporations accountable.
