Exxon's CEO is literally gaslighting us on climate change
Exxon's CEO is literally gaslighting us on climate change
The head of the largest oil and gas corporation in America says that the "people generating the emissions" need to "pay the price" of shifting from carbon.
Not sure why we would even bother with hearing what an oil CEO has to say about this.
Despicable! The people who are burning the Earth have names and addresses.
And their heads are still attached unfortunatley
“I’m 60, the world will burn in 30 years. It’s too late to do anything now, and I’ll be dead by the time it gets bad, why don’t you all just go live out your lives on your yachts and eat cake all day like I’m going to do?”
but its CEO says that consumers should “pay the price.”
AKA: we are about to raise our pricing and blame some greenwashing initiatives that we aren’t actually going to do.
Must we acknowledge that these companies made petroleum products for consumers, who are us and our parents? Yes.
Can we acknowledge that they have systemically lobbied to delay adoption of technological alternatives? Also yes.
Should we be surprised a CEO of any company, when given a podium, takes the chance to defend his business, and pass off negatives to literally anyone else? Absolutely not.
