This is what happens when everything is subordinated to the logic of capitalism. If investors are not seeing short-term gains, then long-term problems be damned.
The company might one day pay but the individuals responsible for its behavior will almost certainly not, except if they're still alive when climate change kills them as well as the rest of us.
