[QUOTE="Dheepa, post: 69139, member: 1572"] Interesting thoughts Holly, and I completely agree! Taking a narrow minded view on where funding and investment comes from is very counterproductive. If we're looking at this from a common good/collective perspective, it would be far better for companies like Blackstone to help fund sustainable initiatives rather than other forms of commercial investments. I think the interesting thing about the backlash that came from the Oatly investment is that people took issue with the fact that Blackstone were allegedly funding a company with carrying out extensive deforestation activities in the Amazon. Does that mean that investment firms have to clean up/green up their entire portfolio before funding the sustainability market? Seems like a bit of a stretch to me honestly. There may be reputational damage if the public disagrees (as in Oatly's case) but compared to the long term growth in sustainability initiatives, I think it's a small price to pay. [/QUOTE]

Our company is called, "The Corporate ___ Academy". What is the missing word here?
