It's not entirely true though. It is a lot of work. It doesn't mean it shouldn't be done, but often times unless you can incentivize it then they won't.

Even then, many companies find ways around it, such as dealing with carbon credits, which basically allow them to continue harming the environment for a cost, because apparently it's still cheaper that way.

Big business has shown its power in that very way with the carbon credits. This proves they have the power and the manpower to implement actual positive environmental change.
