Big Oil Board Members Refuse to Testify on Climate Pledges

As a critic of Big Oil put it, “Given all the loopholes and disinformation in their companies’ ‘net-zero’ pledges, it’s no wonder these board members are dodging the committee’s request to testify.”

It’s very clear that the battle to phase out fossil fuels will stretch out decades into the future, as Big Oil has the financial resources to fight all on-comers, and bleed them to death with counter law-suits, corruption, disinformation, and a passel of other dirty tricks.

And it’s not like they have a shred of compunction for what they’re doing to destroy our planet’s capacity to support life.
