The day before thewalkout, Bezos announced plans—the company’s “Climate Pledge,” to convert to renewableenergy by 2030 and to be carbon neutral by 2024. The activists applauded this gesture, butclaimed that it was not enough, and that the company needed a more urgent and intensiveresponse. Additionally, the Climate Pledge was perhaps intended to assuage customers that thecompany is in fact making changes (Peltz, J, 2019).This protest apparently (according to employees) led to Amazon enforcing a strictercommunications policy for its
