Summary.
As someone who has worked on climate issues throughout my career, I can tell you that even the most climate-focused organizations are making poor choices when it comes to sustainability. I once worked at an organization that drove crucial environmental policies, but that wasted extensive energy consumption on overcooling the office in the summers and overheating it in the winters. Within those four walls, the seasons seemed to change.
