Exclusive: Canon refutes claims that it denies climate change issues, but critics argue its words are simply misdirection designed to hide inaction.
is a non-profit think tank that was established to accelerate corporate climate action in East Asia. The organization provides investors and regulators with in-depth analysis of the business risks and opportunities associated with climate change.
“Canon’s disingenuous tactics are an attempt at distraction which must seriously call into question any other promises Canon is making about its future climate policies,” Lorenz says.When pressed on specific claims of climate denial, Canon Inc. points blame specifically at CIGS andwho has published multiple articles on CIGS as well as written a book aimed at young teens that aims to trivialize global warming and climate change — words and actions that other scientists have called “indefensible.
When asked if it had an official response to Action Speaks Louder and its photography competition campaign that is specifically designed to pressure Canon to take stronger action against climate denial, the company says it isn’t its place to do so. Action Speaks Louder says this characterization and the company’s attempts to distance itself from CIGS is “absurd” and “incongruous” with reality.
Mr. Mitarai’s words clearly indicate the company’s belief that the research from CIGS not only represents Canon, but also that it wants to use CIGS to influence Japanese policy. This also reinforces the claims about Canon and its relationship with CIGS that Action Speaks Louder has made.
