ExxonMobil’s climate predictions from the late 1970s were eerily accurate https://www.tucsonsentinel.com/nationworld/report/011323_exxonmobil_climate_predictions/exxonmobils-climate-predictions-from-late-1970s-were-eerily-accurate/
ExxonMobil's climate projections, made by in-house scientists between 1977 and 2003, were startlingly accurate and correctly predicted that fossil fuel burning would lead to global warming - while funding research and advertising to sow doubt about climate science.

Yes, the #oil industry (like the #tobacco industry) knew the damage their products did to people and the #environment, but their #greed won out. As this article shows, internal #exxon documents accurately #predicted the rates of #climatechange, even better than #NASA predicted. 🥲

Maybe former management should be sent to prison for several years. Consequences 😡
If a company isn't willing to serve the public good, it doesn't deserve to exist.
Companies are a human construct.
Not some law of Nature, that is a given.
