Summary
Jeff Bezos’s Earth Fund has ended its funding for the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), a major climate certification group, raising concerns that billionaires are shifting away from climate action under Trump.
While Earth Fund claims the $18M grant expired as planned, critics argue political pressure influenced the decision.
Trump’s administration has cut climate mentions from federal sites and slashed green funding, prompting corporations to retreat from climate commitments.
Experts fear this signals a broader decline in green investment as Trump aggressively rolls back environmental initiatives.
The super rich have only one goal - to become richer.
It always requires labor exploitation.
Sometimes to improve their public perception, their PR teams suggest philanthropy, which they then use for tax evasion.
Other times like now, they don’t give a fuck about public perception because the public has chosen racism and bigotry.
