Congrats Exxon! You did it!
I assume they're happy about that
What do you mean the Earth is getting hotter? My Air Conditioning is working fine!
I assume they're lying about how soon.
Yep, most likely 2040.
Well they oughta know.
When will we start executing executives who made this happen?
Well yes, I wonder if they had a plan beyond the statement.
Exxon produces less than 3% of the world's daily crude demand and in May its shareholders overwhelmingly rejected calls for stronger measures to mitigate climate change.
"It's those darn shareholders! Our hands are tied!"
Seems like the reasoning they are going with. Really we need to make it somehow more profitable to do the right/climate focused things.
I would say they are planning on paying Congress to increase the cap. Not that we will survive till 2050
The world will only care when millions of climate refugees start moving to cooler areas.
What the world does to those refugees... I don't expect happiness.
and i wonder who's fault that is?
Exxon ~~says~~ promises world set to fail...
More accurate headline.
