No joke, the alumni newsletter from my graduate school had an issue about scientists combating climate change. The main article concentrated on five alums, and each one worked at a major industrial company...one with SAIC, another with DuPont...and then...
One was a girl who worked for Nike, and her major climate initiative was using leather scraps (normally trash) and binder to make shoe uppers, and making the shoe bottoms out of recycled plastic foam.
I was just speaking to point 3 there that you made. I hardly see how that qualifies as combating climate change and not just making money for Nike from garbage (literally) starting materials. Especially since those shoes are MORE expensive than regular NIkes.
