In the United States, 14 states where oil and gas are key industries passed laws in recent years restricting state agencies from doing business with financial institutions that consider climate risk in investment decisions or pledge to reduce emissions

Moreover, it's big government interfering into business decisions.

I wonder if the same elected politicians support the right for business to refuse customers based religious beliefs, and oppose the right of business to invest or not based on objective sustainably assessments.

I hope businesses aggressively oppose these regulations in court.
