#Greenwashing: Neue #ESMA-Richtlinien erfolgreich?
­
Seit dem 21. Mai 2025 gelten neue Anforderungen der #EUWertpapieraufsicht ESMA: #Investmentfonds, die Begriffe wie „nachhaltig“, „grün“ oder „Impact“ im Namen tragen, sind künftig verpflichtet, bestimmte Unternehmen aus den Bereichen #Kohle, #Öl und #Gas auszuschließen.

Gemeinsam mit #urgewald und #FacingFinance haben wir uns deswegen gefragt: Haben #Fonds mit entsprechenden Begriffen im Namen ihre Namen beibehalten oder geändert?

Wie viele der 4.403 betroffenen Fonds sich umbenannt haben und dadurch weiterhin in die fossile Industrie investieren dürfen, lesen Sie in unserer Analyse → finanzwende.de/themen/oekologi

Auf die Aufsicht kommt es an

TAGESSCHAU: DWS: Bußgeld wegen #Greenwashing betrifft prominenten Fonds tagesschau.de/investigativ/ndr
Höhe des Bußgelds war bisher geheim: 25 Millionen Euro.
Ein internes Gremium hat externe, schlechte Umweltratings einfach overruled („das Öl in den Mangrovenwäldern könnte ja auch von jemand anderen stammen“)
Interessant, dass für den zweiten umstrittenen Fonds der WWF seinen Namen hergegeben hat.

Monash University #australia is co-hosting a “climate change & energy transition” conference with Woodside, a gas corporation “not even pretending” to transition to clean energy but instead “doubling down on oil & gas”
#money #fossilfuels #gas #climate
2024 speakers were invited to submit papers on “the role of climate activism/nimbyism” in “thwarting emissions reductions” and how “activism”, “lawfare” and “cancel culture” were harmful to the energy transition.

Today in "Carbon Capture Still Doesn't Work"

The flagship carbon capture project in Iceland is revealed to have not just missed its targets but has failed to capture enough carbon to offset its own emissions. They would have been better off doing nothing.

Something to think about as the UK and Scottish Governments pour money into the Acorn Project.

Heimildin · Climeworks’ capture fails to cover its own emissionsThe carbon capture company Climeworks only captures a fraction of the CO2 it promises its machines can capture. The company is failing to carbon offset the emissions resulting from its operations – which have grown rapidly in recent years.

Hey, #ABC - You want to know what #Greenwashing is? When a brand new airport, built on a greenfield site right up against a UNESCO World Heritage Biosphere Reserve, to serve a city that already has an airport is "sustainability-focused"

"As Australia's first new greenfield international airport in more than 50 years, WSI's design is sustainability-focused, according to the architects behind the project."

So how is the greenfield airport "sustainable"? Solar panels on the roof and rainwater tanks... ya know... the bare minimum that everyone's been doing for decades.

Here’s how ”democracy” operates under capitalist domination…
_____________________________

A wave of bills in state legislatures aim to classify climate-heating methane gas as a source of “green” or “clean” energy to prevent communities from transitioning away from fossil fuels — and secretive dark money groups connected to the gas industry are behind the effort.

The legislation could threaten the enforcement of climate policies across the country, allowing gas to stand in for clean energy in states’ renewable energy portfolios and thwart local efforts to phase out reliance on fossil fuels. As methane emissions increasingly drive climate change, the bills would disguise the devastating environmental impacts of the powerful greenhouse gas — while the Trump administration caters to fossil fuel-backed donors on federal gas policy.

This rebrand is being pushed by the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), a conservative lobbying network. While the group’s donors have largely been hidden from the public, an investigation by the Center for Media and Democracy found that its second-largest known donor is fossil fuel mogul Charles Koch.
