Amazon.com investors at its annual meeting again rejected all outside shareholder resolutions, including three meant to address the online retail giant’s impact on climate change.
Voters approved the reelection of 12 directors and proposed executive compensation.
Shareholders put forth eight proposals, all of which Amazon encouraged investors to vote against.
Last year, there were 14 resolutions and all failed to get sufficient votes to be enacted.
Amazon said its existing disclosures are sufficient and that it is working towards reducing its environmental impacts.
Two other proposals aimed at the development of artificial intelligence software were also rejected.
One resolution would have had Amazon assess its board structure to consider how it might develop AI more responsibly, while the other would have required a report on data usage and collection around AI.
Seattle-based Amazon asserted that it is a leader in responsible AI development, and so no changes are needed.
