Used to work on the sustainability team before they decimated it. Good people, doing good work. Now it’s a joke

We have no sustainability strategy from the new vp. Maybe they can make a kpi to reduce flights by 50%.

An excellent article that yet again reflects the hypocrisy of Sustainability at Nike and the leaders in charge of this work. It’s time to de-swooshify.

Unbelievable, another example of Nike leadership ‘accountability’

“Nike’s jets landed at Moffett more than 100 times in the first three and a half years of Donahoe’s tenure, flight-tracking records show. Landings at Moffett stopped in July 2023 but became more frequent at a nearby airport with a similar drive time to Portola Valley.
Donahoe and Nike executive chairperson Mark Parker have made clear that climate change is a crisis demanding urgent action. “It’s about leading with actions, not words,” Parker said in Nike’s 2019 corporate responsibility report. “We are more committed than ever to help save the planet,” Donahoe said in a 2022 company video.”

It’s never been about sustainability. It’s always been about marketing an image. Basically propaganda…
