(1/5) The @GlobalLF together with @UNEP_FI are closing today a 3 days conference in Luxembourg on SUSTAINABLE FINANCE - for those who appreciate peotry, here is a beautiful oxymoron.

Here I am for @RECOMS_ITN, @FRW_RUG and @LukeFinlandInt @LukeFinland
(2/5) Luxembourg is one of the biggest tax heavens in the world, allowing companies like @amazon, @Apple, @Cargill, and hundreds of other corporations to hide their immense fortunes.

I wonder why they chose this venue to host the SUSTAINABLE FINANCE conference...

(4/5) Finally, cherry on top, the catering is organised by @SodexoGroup, a company well known all over the world for unfair labour conditions, anti-union behaviour and unsustainable food.

Of course, (tax) heaven forbid, the meals today are all vegetarian!

(5/5) Its subsidiary, SodexoJusticeServices, runs private prisons, mainly in 🇬🇧. Several claims of cruel, inhumane and degrading treatment.

People die in Sodexo prisons. In Oct '19 a woman gave birth alone in her cell. The baby died right afterwards.

Business is business. ⛓💷
