Every ton of carbon emitted raises the temperature a tiny bit and reduces air quality, but companies never pay for those costs to society, also known as externalities. Many leading companies internalize the externalities by putting a “shadow price” on carbon inside the business (some collect real money as a self-imposed tax).
