This is where it gets tricky
Mr. Kenney, Alberta’s premier, has publicly vilified investors that left, complaining that some of those same investors also finance oil production in countries such as Iran and Saudi Arabia, which have lower greenhouse gas emissions per barrel but far worse human-rights records.

My cousin's mid-20s nephew, part of my holiday family, said he quit a warehouse job at Amazon to go back to Jr. college again because the job was backbreaking and dangerous... he's tall at 6'8" so the bending was maybe outside their ergo design... but it begs the question is where do people draw the lines at "socially responsible investments?"

I save a TON of carbon ordering stuff on Amazon to save solo trips to hardware and electronics stores.... but it comes at a cost too.
