Corporate Climate Communications Memorial Service & Networking Reception
The funeral program was printed on recycled paper, which seemed important to no one. Inside the Midtown conference center, communications directors and sustainability VPs gathered around a sleek black casket embossed with three letters that had been partially sanded off. The officiant began: "The work continues. We're simply optimizing its visibility profile."
People took notes. The programs still existed, apparently. The solar panels kept running. The renewable energy procurement continued. The language just disappeared. Someone near the exits said something about "strategic silence" and everyone nodded. Outside, I could see the building's solar array through the window. There was a new plaque beneath it: "Do Not Publicize."
