    While I believe making sure more people are aware that climate change is a big deal, especially people with money that can actually do something about it, I’m hesitant to rely on data in a dire warning from McKensey in what is basically a We’re Hiring post.

    Some tiny history of who McKensey is:
    The firm has been associated with a number of notable scandals, including the collapse of Enron in 2001, the 2007–2008 financial crisis, and facilitating state capture in South Africa. It has also drawn controversy for involvement with Purdue Pharma, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and authoritarian regimes. Michael Forsythe and Walt Bogdanich, reporters for The New York Times, wrote a book entitled When McKinsey Comes to Town about the controversially unethical work history of the company.
