Caterpillar Inc 0.10%
War & Conflict
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.
CATERPILLAR INC War & Conflict
Caterpillar, a manufacturer of heavy equipment, power solutions, and locomotives, has a history of supplying the Israeli military. In 2004, Human Rights Watch reported the use of Caterpillar D9 bulldozers in demolishing over 250 Palestinian homes in Gaza, resulting in Palestinian casualties. Subsequently, in 2017, the Israeli military acquired numerous Caterpillar heavy engineering vehicles through a significant deal. The sale was financed by the United States Government, but the deal itself was between the Israeli military and Caterpillar. Incidents involving Caterpillar equipment causing harm to Palestinians have persisted, with recent instances reported as of 2023.
These occurrences include the use of Caterpillar equipment in demolishing Palestinian homes in illegally occupied territories, constructing illegal settlements and their infrastructure on occupied land, as well as building the Separation Wall in the West Bank and the Gaza border wall. Evidence also suggests Caterpillar’s products have been used by third parties in other conflict-affected areas, including Myanmar and the Western Sahara. Caterpillar's continued supply to these conflict areas raises concerns about its complicity in the misuse of its products.

JBS is one of the world’s largest food companies and exporters of beef from Brazil. JBS has been linked to allegations of environmental harm in its supply chain, as multiple sources have traced JBS meat products to illegally deforested areas in the Amazon rainforest. JBS has also been linked to multiple cases of animal cruelty. JBS suppliers have allegedly carried out intensive-style poultry farming, which includes inhumane conditions and violent treatment of animals. Through its subsidiary, Huon Aquaculture, JBS has been linked to the inhumane death of seals by using explosives at salmon farms in Tasmania.

Where companies source their power generation from fossil fuels (oil, natural gas, coal) to generate electricity.
CONTACT ENERGY LTD Fossil Fuel Power Generation
Contact Energy is one of Aotearoa New Zealand’s largest electric utilities companies. Contact operates three thermal power stations that employ gas and diesel, and evidence shows that energy generated from fossil fuels accounts for 17% of generating capacity and 8% of the company’s revenues. However, Contact has announced plans for further investment in renewable generation. This includes NZD $1.2 billion in geothermal power, by constructing a new station and expanding capacity at an existing station, along with early developments in wind and solar generation. Therefore, the company 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.
PUBLIC SERVICE ENTERPRISE GP Fossil Fuel Power Generation
Public Service Enterprise Group is based in the USA and supplies electricity and natural gas to customers, primarily in New Jersey. Evidence shows that electricity generated from oil and gas accounts for 15% of the company’s total revenue. However, the company is in the process of divesting from its fossil fuel assets and in 2021 it shut down its last coal-fired plant. The company now plans to focus on nuclear power and natural gas and has set a target of net-zero emissions by 2030. Therefore, the company is considered to be on a climate change pathway aligned with 1.5°C of global temperature rise.

EDP-ENERGIAS DE PORTUGAL SA Fossil Fuel Power Generation
EDP is Portugal’s largest generator and distributor of electricity. Evidence shows that 12.5% of the company’s revenue is generated from fossil fuels, including 5% from coal-fired plants and 7.5% from oil and gas. However, EDP has committed to being coal-free by 2025 and carbon neutral by 2030. The decision to shut down rather than offload their fossil fuel assets contrasts with many other energy companies who instead choose to sell up when faced with dropping profits or a need to improve their sustainability credentials. Therefore, the company is considered to be on a climate change pathway aligned with 1.5°C of global temperature rise.

Endesa is the largest electric utilities company in Spain and the second largest in Portugal, generating electricity from a mix of hydropower, nuclear, coal, gas, oil, solar, and wind. Evidence shows that energy generated from fossil fuels accounts for 22% of the company’s revenues. However, the company have announced plans to abandon coal by 2027 and gas by 2040, while investing significantly in expanding their renewable energy capacity. Therefore, the company is considered to be on a climate change pathway aligned with 1.5°C of global temperature rise.

ORSTED A/S Fossil Fuel Production
Ørsted is a Danish power company and Europe’s largest producer of electricity from offshore wind power. The company was previously named Danish Oil and Natural Gas but has now transitioned to generate 91% of its power from renewable sources. The company had previously set a target of ending coal generation by 2023, however, the Danish government recently required the company to extend the operation of its two remaining coal plants to June 2024, along with one oil plant. Ørsted still stands by an overall target of net-zero emissions by 2040 with an interim goal of generating 100% renewable electricity by 2025. Therefore, the company is considered to be on a climate change pathway aligned with 1.5°C of global temperature rise.
