Our mission [ic-leaf]

The ACF Corporate Campaigns team holds big businesses accountable, revealing how companies contribute to climate pollution and nature destruction.

Our mission is to restrict money flow to activities causing environmental harm, increase support for climate solutions and nature restoration, and transform food value chains.

We examine documents, line by line to expose business practices resulting in climate pollution and nature destruction.

We publish reports and performance benchmarks to influence businesses and encourage a race to the top.

We empower Australians to pressure their banks, superfunds, and supermarkets to adopt climate and nature-friendly practices.
