Where companies are involved in the production or retail of fur & speciality leather products (where animals are raised purely for skins).

Where companies, through their products or operations, are involved in environmental degradation e.g., pollution, chemical spills.
Diversified personal-care, homecare, and packaged food company. The company states that its products are sold in countries where animal testing of cosmetic products is required by law. Also, the third largest producer of plastics in the world’s oceans and is the biggest corporate seller of plastic sachets, which are significantly destructive, particularly in the Global South. Has pushed back its plastic reduction targets from 2025 to 2034.
Where a company is complicit in its products or services enabling violations of the Geneva Convention and infringement of the rights of individuals in war or conflict situations.
Motorola is an American provider of communication products, video equipment, telecommunications equipment, software, systems, and services. Motorola Solutions and its subsidiary, Motorola Israel, have been accused of complicity in human rights violations due to its sale of communication products to the Israeli Ministry of Defence in the occupied Palestinian territories. Israeli settlements in occupied Palestinian territories are deemed illegal under international law.
Where a company is complicit in its products or services enabling violations of the Geneva Convention and infringement of the rights of individuals in war or conflict situations.
Bank Hapoalim is one of Israel's largest banks. Evidence shows that for decades Bank Hapoalim has been facilitating the expansion of Israel's settlement enterprise in occupied Palestine by routinely providing loans to construction companies and financing settlement infrastructure projects. Israeli settlements in occupied Palestine are deemed illegal under international law.
Where a company is complicit in its products or services enabling violations of the Geneva Convention and infringement of the rights of individuals in war or conflict situations.
Bank Leumi is one of Israel's largest banks.

Israeli settlements in occupied Palestine are deemed illegal under international law.
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). However, at the end of 2024 Contact opened a major new geothermal renewable facility - the Tauhara plant. 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.
Produces electricity from plants and distributes gas. Is expanding its portfolio of renewable assets (wind & solar farms + hydro) and options to reduce emissions from Huntly (Battery technology and biomass use). However, in 2023 35% of revenue came from fossil fuel generation - Huntley Power Station (Coal & Gas) and sales of gas from the Kupe field.
Where companies, through their products or operations, are involved in environmental degradation e.g., pollution, chemical spills.
Fonterra ranks as the fifth largest source of greenhouse gas emissions among agri-food companies globally. This position is reflective of the heavy environmental footprint of the dairy industry, notably of methane (GHG) produced by dairy herds and other harm from intensive dairy farming practices such as through high nitrogen runoff into rivers, which flow into oceans.
Where companies, through their products or operations, are involved in environmental degradation e.g., pollution, chemical spills.
Manufacture and bottle Coca-Cola beverages under licence. Collectively the Coca-Cola related entities produce the most plastic rubbish in our oceans at 3 million tons of plastic packaging annually, which has devastating impacts on our oceans, wreaking havoc on wildlife and sending plastic particles into the food chain.
Where companies are involved in testing products on animals for cosmetic, personal care, household product, chemical and other uses. We do not include companies which conduct animal testing for pharmaceutical products, medical devices, biotechnology, human food, or pet food.
