Where companies source their power generation from fossil fuels (oil, natural gas, coal) to generate electricity.
One of Aotearoa New Zealand’s largest electric utilities companies. Operates three thermal power stations that employ gas and diesel. In FY2024, 81% of the energy Contact generated came from renewable energy (lower than in 2023 due to a dry winter).

It is considered to be on a climate change pathway aligned with 1.5°C of global temperature rise.
Where companies source their power generation from fossil fuels (oil, natural gas, coal) to generate electricity.

French based global oil major (7th largest in the world). In 2022 it produced 970 million barrels of oil and the company plans to expand their operations with an additional 7,970 million barrels in the short term (1-7 years).

Where companies are involved in significant harm to individuals or communities, through the unsafe nature of their products or delivery of services and inadequate response to evidence of harm.
The world’s largest social network (Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp). Company has faced claims and legal actions due to mental health harm (notably to young people), breaches of user privacy / data rights, and the spread of misinformation.
