Apple has become the first corporation to achieve the top score of an "A+" in our scoring system, due to its recent support of ambitious climate policy.

In the wake of the Paris COP21 agreement of late last year, London based non-profit InfluenceMap forensically analyzed and ranked the largest companies in the world according to whether they are lobbying for or against climate policy - and it tracked and scored links with the trade associations corporations often use to conduct this lobbying.
