Yes, let's blame climate change (a product of corporate greed) for the corporations' greed.

Both happen - a warmer world makes some things scarcer, causing their price to rise, and companies raise prices because they think they can make a larger profit

It's been proved so many times now that companies are raising prices for no reason that connecting climate change to inflation doesn't help either situation.

It's also called depression. (I think, don't quote me on that.)
