Sierra Club chief urges action after Koch exec accepts warming

摘要

Koch Industries should help push for clean energy to fight the impacts of climate change if the company's leaders truly believe the climate is changing, Sierra Club Executive Director Michael Brune said. Brune's comments came in an open letter to Koch Industries after the company's director of environment, health and safety, Sheryl Corrigan, recently acknowledged the company believes that climate change is real and that humans contribute to it (E&ENews PM, April 8). Referring to one of the company's owners, Charles Koch, Corrigan said, "I think Charles has said the climate is changing. So the climate is changing. I think he's also said, and we believe, that humans have a part in that."
