Thank you for this well-researched assessment of corporate responsibility for our climate crisis. The problem, as always is that these corporate "persons" have no soul to save, and no body to incarcerate. Fines levied for violation of laws are "ignored as "cost of doing business, and are simply passed on to their consumers.

.Since they are immortal, corporations are not subject to the death penalty either. And while they used to be chartered by only one government, now they are multinational. so that if we revoke their charters, they will simply move their operational headquarters elsewhere. In other words, they are a cancer on the Earth, and that cancer has become terminal.
