Worth including a quick reminder here that Exxon-Mobil made a US$36 billion profit in 2023: www.reuters.com/business/ene.... Not gross revenue. Profit. (5/n)
Exxon Mobil on Friday posted a better-than-expected $36 billion profit for 2023, lifted by fuels trading and higher oil and gas production.
Who knew? "Exxon was aware of climate change, as early as 1977... This knowledge did not prevent the company (now ExxonMobil and the world’s largest oil and gas company) from spending decades refusing to publicly acknowledge climate change and even promoting climate misinformation." (6/n)
A new investigation shows the oil company understood the science before it became a public issue and spent millions to promote misinformation
But apparently it's all the fault of people won't spend the money for lower carbon fuels (which they absolutely won't make cheaper, despite, you know, $36bn)
Extinction mobil
If you made $30K a year starting *when Jesus was born* to today and never spent a single penny You'd still have less money than Mobil made in profits *in 2023* Not revenue Profits THIS is what the right, Conservatives, the religious shitgibbons, etc are pushing to protect at all costs
