Someone please put the lid on "green washing"

"ESG: JBS, reinforced its commitment towards a global ESG agenda and announced Jason Weller as Global Chief Sustainability Officer and Michael Koenig as Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer. Additionally, a Global Compliance Committee was formed, subordinated to the Board of Directors, and it is tasked with overseeing continued improvements and enhancements to the compliance program and promoting a company-wide culture of compliance". Global companies and some with less than unblemished records over long periods are out touting their green credentials with frequent references to the UN. We even have small industry bodies referencing the UN. A lot selling but no serious green organisations are buying. Give us a break.
