    What does holding corporations accountable look like if not refusing to give them our money while advocating for regulation?

    They pollute to make money on individuals buying their products and services.

      Realistically, fines or other regulations that has the effect of increasing their costs. The way it should work is that this would increase costs to consumers, who then buy less or buy from a competitor who doesn’t pollute as much. But too many people think that any regulation whatsoever is communism and scream whenever anything like that is talked about so nothing ever gets done. And also the politicians are bought.
