      This, and also I downvoted for the inclusion of the utterly useless “Here’s what you need to know”.

    This is really important. Just the fact that the backlash from the fossil fuel industry was so massive shows you how much this law can actually change. Mind you it is just a report, but everybody knows that climate change is real and that means governments should pass laws to tackle polluters. So companies with huge carbon footprints will be under attack by the government. Investors do not like that, but this gives them the choice to choose cleaner companies.
