I fundamentally disagree. It may not be good capitalism, but capitalism and business are not 100% synonymous. Capitalism is about making money now, while business is about continuing to make money. Too often, businesses will do something that gives short term gains but hurts them in the long run. Fighting climate change is the opposite... it hurts them now, but has huge long term payoffs. Less cooling bills, more locations to open stores, more locations to acquire resources, a more stable customer base... all of these things are good business.
