A report by Clean Creatives has listed 41 advertising and public relations agencies that have current or historical contracts with coal, oil and gas firms, accusing them of contributing to the climate crisis by downplaying their environmental consequences. The report also reveals that 35 agencies and over 140 people in the advertising and PR sector have pledged not to work with fossil fuel companies, with over 700 agencies having joined the pledge worldwide. While advertising agencies have the power to inform the public about climate change, industry experts highlight that advertising is a fundamental aspect of capitalism.
