The recent messaging pivot from oil and gas executives should make anyone who cares about the climate crisis—policymakers, especially—finally stop treating these executives as potential allies in the climate fight.
All of the old politicians have to be replaced by young ones that really care about the earth staying habitable and aren’t in the big oil company’s pocket. They will be able to deal with them much harder.
These oil exec’s are much too convident knowing they have the current politicians in their pocket.
Take them all out back and shoot them. I don’t care anymore. These are the same jackasses who are building bunkers and finding horrid ways to keep their security team in check when the crisis THEY have the biggest hand in causing, hits the fan.

Ban me. Downvote me, whatever.
Crimes against humanity. We can we start calling this self-defense
Pride cometh before the fall.
Liberty, egality, fraternity.
When they say they don’t “expect”, they mean “we’re lobbying to prevent it.”
At least not for the next 27 years. Many countries have given up the idea of an all electric vehicle push for 2030 or 2035. But the goal is still net zero 2050 so for the foreseeable future gas will continue.
We just need a group of leaders to lead some charges.
