The problem is companies prioritize profits over humanities basic needs like a functioning planet and climate.

Regulation should really be the solution imo. The cost of ruining the climate should be higher so companies are forced to change their practices. But if the government is incapable or unwilling to regulate it and you still invest in them in order to make money, then what you're really saying is

"I'm going to invest in this company for profit related reasons even if the company is willing to destroy the planet in order to make more profit"

Which deserves a negative response imo.
