German carmaker Volkswagen was one of the “most disliked” companies for pressure groups last year following its emissions scandal, a survey has found.
Shell was the most criticised by campaigners, followed by Monsanto, which makes genetically modified food.
Half of the top-10 most criticised companies on Sigwatch’s list were energy firms, because of “the elephant in the room – climate change,” Mr Blood said.
Top was Shell, but TransCanada, ExxonMobil, EDF and BP also featured.
Shell said it would continue to engage with NGOs to ensure a “high-energy, low carbon, responsible energy future for our planet”.
