#InfluenceMap hat die Einflussnahme von Firmen und Industrieverbände auf #Klimapolitik international verglichen.
Am stärksten stemmen sich Akteure aus der #USA gegen #Klimaschutz, aber der drittschädlichste Konzern ist deutsch: #BASF 🥉
#Lufthansa und #BMW liegen im Negativ-Ranking auf den Plätzen 15 und 16.
Auf Rang 4 der #Klimaschmutzlobby steht der europäische Verband mit dem generischen Namen #BusinessEurope. Bekannter sind Plätze 9 und 10: #VDA und #BDI.

NB: #AberChina #WhatAboutChina? Konzerne und #Lobbyisten aus #China tauchen in beiden Listen nicht auf.

I don't accept your assertion that Asia is doing nothing towards decarbonization either, but since successfully starting to bring down my country which is the world's largest economy is finally starting to go well I maintain there's hope
