Thttps://www.youtube.com/live/Jk66alanGA4?si=zo2Vff7wvYgVNnS9he 2015 investigation shows Exxon understood the science before it became a public issue and spent millions to promote misinformation, which they are doing with carbon capture. Only now, it is government money in the way of even more subsidies. ~~ "UN secretary-general António Guterres has criticised the oil and gas industry’s attempts to reduce fossil fuel emissions using carbon capture and storage technologies (CCUS), rather than reducing the fuels themselves." "In 2012, after the pre-eminent scientific authority on climate change warned of global calamity if carbon emissions continued unabated, Tillerson disagreed and directed Exxon researchers to “influence” the group. Throughout Tillerson’s tenure between 2006 and 2016, Exxon executives in their internal communications attempted to push back against the notion that humans needed to curtail oil and gas use to help the planet—despite the company’s public statements that action was needed." "The natural gas processing sector dominates the application of carbon capture technology. The gas production process requires the removal of carbon dioxide. While many gas companies now claim to produce “carbon-neutral” gas or liquefied natural gas, this is little more than marketing hubris and a lot of BS. It is no solution for a climate-constrained world."
