Lots of articles about this here is one https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/exxon-knew-about-climate-change-almost-40-years-ago/
Sure, there's much too much pollution the multi-national corporations are damaging our planet with, but that's not the discussion. The discussion is picking the pockets of the public and forcing them to adhere to strict and authoritarian orders, mandates, and decrees. I sure don't see any multi-national corporations worried about anything. In fact, their profits increase to record highs every single year, year after year.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

It’s time to face the fact that resolving the climate crisis will require a fundamental shift away from our growth-based, corporate-dominated global system.

Originally posted by Obbe In May 2020, as the world was convulsed by the coronavirus pandemic and global infections topped 4 million, a strange video began appearing in the feeds of some Facebook users. “Climate alarm is reaching untold levels of exaggeration and hysteria,” said an unseen narrator, over a montage of environmental protests and clips of a tearful Greta Thunberg. “There is no doubt about it, climate change has become a cult,” it continued, to the kind of pounding beat you might hear on the soundtrack of a Hollywood blockbuster. “Carbon dioxide emissions have become the wages of sin.”
At one stage, users hovering over the logo of that advertiser – a UK organisation called The Global Warming Policy Forum, or GWPF – were informed by Facebook that it was a “Science Site”. The GWPF is not a science website: it is the campaigning arm of a well-funded foundation accused by opponents of being one of Britain’s biggest sources of climate science denial.
Imagine taking something written in such a blatantly prejudicial manner, complete with the scare quotes, seriously. -

Here is comes, the solution isn't reducing emissions. It's climate justice. All the weird hippy shit.
This is why we're fucked. -

What that shitty dishonest article doesn't mention is that people have known about climate change for hundreds of years, with really good science about environmental chemistry since the 1940s.

2021-11-14 at 11:21 PM UTCI can't understand if Obb3 is constantly being b8d or if so many people are actually this stupid.
"Climate change isn't real because I said so"
"Here are 200 different sources featuring people much smarter than you with substance and facts behind their findings"
"Didn't read LOL"
"OK well here's another 200"
"FAKE NEWS LIBREL LOL"
