ExxonMobil's own scientists accurately predicted future global warming in reports dating back to the late 1970s and early 1980s, but the company continued to cast doubt on climate science, a new report finds.

ExxonMobil’s own scientists accurately predicted future global warming in reports dating back to the late 1970s and early 1980s, despite the company publicly continuing for years to cast doubt on climate science and lobby against climate action, according to a new analysis. Researchers examined climate projections produced between 1977 and 2003 by Exxon, one of the world’s biggest oil and gas companies.

” “ExxonMobil’s understanding of climate science has developed along with that of the broader scientific community,” he said. Casting ‘doubt and uncertainty’ Despite its own modeling showing fossil fuel use would lead to global warming, Exxon’s public communications raised doubt about climate change, including taking out ads in major publications suggesting climate science was poorly understood and scientists were divided.

No surprise! They knew how much oil theyve sold all along and well the energetic effects usually go up in smoke. Doesnt take a scientist at all to figure we’d all be warming up some day! Not to mention the plastic waste, too by the way, pretty much everywhere, thanks EM ruined 🌎

Nobody knows exactly what’s going on today, how could they know 50 years ago with the at that time limited science…? “Accurate prediction” back then…? Rather a miracle and the start of a new religion!

The 1970s was global cooling. 80-90s was global warming. Then the temperature dropped it was climate change. Only thing consistent, is 50 years of lies.
