I en gennemgang fra proxy rådgiver ISS med titlen “Climate Shareholder Proposals: A More Sophisticated Discourse”, hedder det, at ”Shareholder proposals related to climate change in the United States increased in both volume and support levels in recent years, becoming some of the most prominent topics featured on annual general meeting ballots in the United States. In 2022 and 2023, however, support levels for these proposals dropped considerably from their 2021 peak, going from a median support of 49% of votes cast in 2021 to 20% in 2023. 2024 proxy season data shows a relatively high volume of submitted requests, at 113 proposals for the twelve-month period ending in June 2024. This is lower compared to the past two years, but still considerably higher than the rest of the past decade. Notably, support levels are edging upward compared to 2023, reaching a median level of 26% of votes cast.”
