The rise of 'greenhushing', particularly in the US; is it just a temporary blip or is the market moving on from sustainability?

The 2020s were meant to be a decade of concerted action to face up to the impacts of climate change and global warming. Embracing principles was the order of the day, with a heavy emphasis on the E as governments and business set ambitious targets for delivering Net Zero carbon emissions.
