On the other hand it could be as simple as changing out their heat/ac to more efficient units to cut costs. They may have been going to do this anyway, but make it sound like they are helping the environment. They don't want protesters in front of their stores.
Becoming more efficient is not woke, it is just about saving money. I recently changed out my two air conditioning units because they burned out. I got the cheapest new ones I could, and they still save me about 20% in electric bills over the old ones which is good. But, I wasn't going to change out my old ones if they were still working.
