I allowed myself to call it that way, because the author has incorporated in this text the business narrative of climate change.

The largest hurdle for improving the environment isn’t companies nor rich sociopaths, no it’s apathy allowing the companies and sociopaths to get their way.
I want to believe that we can fix this, even if it’s uphill for the rest of my life, in the best case scenario.
