Exxon’s models predicting climate change were spot on — 40 years ago

A new study finds that Exxon’s projections were as good as any academic's

At the beginning of the 1980s, Exxon’s own scientists had warned that continuing to burn fossil fuels would lead to “catastrophic” and “irreversible” consequences. But starting in 1989, Exxon publicly dismissed its own findings. The company’s leadership cast doubt on the credibility of climate science, deriding models and emphasizing how “uncertainty” made them virtually useless. It’s part of a larger story about how many companies — including Shell, coal companies, and utilities — misled the public about climate change while their executives understood and downplayed the dangers of skyrocketing carbon emissions.

These criminals should be in jail.

Why the fuck didn't ExxonMobil just start a bunch of renewables businesses? Like Wh How do you fumble the bag that badly

Imagine It's the 1970's or whatever time it was You make this big discovery Oh! Oh shit! Okay well that's bad news Well

I guess we will need a new energy system And we found out Before everyone else about this. So we get to make The energy system Before anyone else gets to make it And, Due to this information, We know, That fossil fuels of all sorts have to phase out 100% Which is all of our competitors basically So come on let's put our thinking caps on We all know that the industrial revolution Was a big thing Back In the day And here we have information that means we can make another energy revolution A million times bigger And we can lead it And make money off it If we just, you know, Made a smart business decision If we shifted course real fast right now Put in all the money we've made into it Get all the technology ready We have like 40 years to do it, but definitely Before more companies can find out Then, once we're ready Start pushing for new laws. With money Educate the public on it. So they vote on it And then because an extinction event is something nobody wants For obvious reasons Even if its hard at first, we should be able To get all our competitors Out of commission Even if they try to copy us, We've had time to prepare, We can lead the change Internationally - In every country - And become a single monopoly Controlling all Energy resources on The planet And be basically the biggest company Making money from another energy Revolution Which would give us WAY more money Than EVERYBODY.

Why didn't they just do that shit?

Chevron beats earnings expectations, returns more than $7 billion to shareholders

Chevron beat third-quarter earnings and revenue expectations, returning a record amount of cash to shareholders. The company’s shares were up more than 4% in morning trading following the report’s release. The oil major’s quarterly profit, however, declined substantially compared with the year-ago period due to lower margins on refined product sales, lower prices and the absence of favorable tax…

"...Guyanese environmental lawyer Melinda Janki about how she’s taking on the oil giant ExxonMobil to stop the company from developing an offshore oil field that would turn Guyana into a “carbon bomb.” Guyana is currently a carbon sink, but Exxon plans to produce more than 1 million barrels of oil a day, which could transform the South American country into one of the world’s top oil producers by 2030."

Guyana has the fastest growing offshore oil development 'in the history of the world,' energy expert says

The story includes corporate America, companies like AT&T, USAA, Allstate, Chase, Exxon, and others who, through their PACs, donated millions to the GOP, and through their ad budgets, millions to Fox News. Even today as Fox is being outed as true propaganda machine most knew it was, and as the GOP cranks up their fascist policies, these companies CONTINUE to fund the GOP and Fox News

White wealthy men made sure white wealthy men were never held accoubtable.

It's a separate reality.

Trump is the patriarchy. He is given chance after chance to fail. He is a rapist. He is a Russian money launderer. He is an abuser. He is a wife-cheater. Above all, he is a radicalizing racist.

All these negative constructs protect Trump so all the racists, cheaters, abusers, and rapists can be rewarded for their complicity.

Kicking off a mass extinction Just to cover it up? What is wrong with some people Well, guess it worked well enough Yay you won Here's your dead planet I don't get it man Maybe it's a good thing that I don't

Just, Say they get what they wanted You know, Set off various resource wars Hop into their bunkers Put people in collars And have them work for them Say, it goes all according to plan They're safe now They've got a mind controlled farm Of worker ants Okay yay Uh You're a dumbass. Fucks wrong with you You're gonna die in like. 2 years tops It'll smell like shit You'll be hungry Everyone will die in a bit Like. Congrats on your few years of glory Was it even worth it? Did you even really decide it? Or were you just running From your consequences?

Secondly, We haven't even got the science for it. We don't. We straight up don't. We can't create a system that is Self sustaining growing food forever I've studied the subject And talked to the people who do it And we haven't figured out SEEDS yet How the fuck are we gonna make a whole Ecosystem?! With animals and plants that Take years and years to grow???

Then do it underground?? Or in SPACE???

Can barely stop Earth from dying Oh, hey, Let's make a whole other Earth using uhhh Absolutely nothing You realise only tiny amounts of the Earth Are biodiverse enough that they might be Good examples but even then they're all Dying Because you killed everything Before it could teach you anything about surviving. You idiot

And even then Look, are they gonna even live long enough? For the bunkers? Realistically The less they cut back The faster it hits So they're burning their future, thinking They'll die before the consequences And thinking they'll die of OLD AGE... And it's like. dude You have 20 years left at LEAST Please destroy the world when you are 99 If thats your plan So you have a chance of dying beforehand

Like Are they stupid, or is it just me? Is this even their thought process? Do they even think? I think my entire spiel answers that I don't even know if they thought out the bunker thing as much as I did. Anyway, they're literally Killing themselves Via way of self species extinction To see the funny money number go up You have to be a real moron to do that

Another day in GOP-land. Any good fascist will tell you, always follow GOP-law. “If the facts do not conform, dispose them and make shit up.” It works ONLY because their lies are enabled by the idiots who vote Republican at ANY level and by corporations like AT&T, ExxonMobil, McDonalds, and others who donate millions to the GOP and spend millions filling Fox’s bank by buying commercial time.

Mark Sumner at Daily Kos: 

Last October, Florida State Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo issued an extraordinary warning. Based an analysis of Florida residents, Ladapo asserted that being vaccinated for COVID-19 resulted in an “increased risk for cardiac-related mortality” in the month following vaccination. Even more astoundingly, that analysis claimed that mRNA vaccines represented a “substantial” risk for both all-cause and cardiac-related deaths for men between 18 and 39. According to Ladapo , there was an “84% increase in the relative incidence of cardiac-related death” for men in that age group following vaccination with an mRNA vaccine. As a result, the state of Florida officially recommended against men getting vaccinated for COVID-19.

Since that announcement, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has repeatedly backed Ladapo’s recommendation. The numbers from that state-controlled Florida “study” have become standard fare for anti-vaccine claims from Fox News to Robert Kennedy Jr.. Kennedy even had Ladapo on his anti-vax podcast to promote a book Ladapo authored in which he scoffed at the “panic and fear” of other public health officials when it comes to COVID-19.

However, right from the start, Ladapo’s colleagues were highly skeptical of both his findings and his recommendation. Now The Tampa Bay Times demonstrates that there were very good reasons for that skepticism. Because to get the numbers he wanted, Ladapo altered the results of the study, leaving out what it really discovered: “The risk associated with COVID-19 infection clearly outweighs any potential risks associated with mRNA vaccination.”

[…]

Not only does the Times version show how Ladapo deliberately altered the conclusion of the report to highlight the false fear he wanted to create, to better highlight the results, Ladapo removed a whole set of data from the study. The data concerning what happened to Floridians who became infected with COVID-19.

The Florida Department of Health under anti-vaxxer extremist “Dr.” Joseph Ladapo altered studies to support his deranged anti-vaxxer conclusions just so he can peddle the false narrative that the COVID-19 vaccine is more dangerous than getting COVID-19.

Exxon beats earnings estimates, increases fourth-quarter dividend

Exxon Mobil beat third-quarter earnings expectations, as the oil major reached its highest liquids production level in more than four decades. “This quarter is one of the best third quarters we’ve had in the past decade,” Exxon CEO Darren Woods told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Friday. “In the upstream, we see record volumes coming from our advantaged assets like Guyana and the Permian.” Here is what…
