Title: The Board Fight That Failed to Transform Exxon ExxonMobil, the oil giant, has been grappling with a lot of heat from investors over climate change issues. However, two years ago, the company faced a boardroom coup that was expected to transform its approach to environmental sustainability. A hedge fund, Engine No. 1, took on the company in a battle that seemed eco-focused and promising, but what actually happened? The investors thought that by getting three independent directors on the board, namely Kaisa Hietala, Sir Jonathan Porritt, and Dr. Alexander Wynaendts, who had a clear vision of environmental stewardship, they would push ExxonMobil to take a green turn. Unfortunately, the results so far have been uninspiring. According to activists, there is little to show for the board's fight two years later. Engine No. 1 had expected that with their team put in place, ExxonMobil would integrate risk management and climate change policies in their operations. Instead, the company has been relying on offshore oil drilling and extracting more fossil fuels. ExxonMobil's lack of transformation has left stakeholders and investors feeling disillusioned. Despite the company's commitment to a greener future, there seems to be no significant change in their approach to carbon emissions. This inaction leaves the future of the planet in a precarious position. It is vital for companies to take swift action on climate change and for investors to hold them accountable. As pressure mounts on ExxonMobil to take a more serious approach to environmental sustainability, we can only hope that they adopt a new policy of climate stewardship and follow through their commitments. The boardroom fight of two years ago that was meant to transform ExxonMobil's position on the looming climate change crisis should not be in vain, and they should step up and make a difference. As investors press the oil giant on climate issues, activists say that a hedge fund's eco-focused victory over the company two years ago has achieved little.
