Look at cold fusion, look at 50% efficent internal combustion engine(like the scuderi engine), look at stan myers efficent electroyis of water and John Karwictz machines that break down water with high efficency. This guy is trying to scare people that don't know about the power of science.
Rex Tillerson has made a good life for himself. Lee Raymond who took one half a billion dollars with him to retire on is a good example of the greed these men have displayed. They hate the United States and every one of us Americans. They have tried to destroy is politically and economically. They are a blight on humanity. The lady is right, Dick Chenney admitted that he started an illegal war. Now he is blaming it on George Tenet the former director of the CIA. You see when you lie, you must.... More
Tell that scum bag Tillerson that his big oil company will be billed for starting an illegal war with Iraq. Paying the families who lost over a million Iraqi civilians war reparations and be put on trial for crimes against humanity. WWJD What would Jesus do? It is a simple question. These men have destroyed this once mighty and powerful nation leaving it in a shattered mess as they ran up oil prices and destroyed the economic stability of not only the United States but the world as well. If I.... More
Oil and renewable energy have a very small link between one another. The vast majority of energy supply (for factories, homes, offices) comes from coal or natural gas; oil is most significantly used for fuels (cars)...Exxon Mobil making comments about the prospect of renewable energy as it relates to oil, and the status of it's "transition" is grossly inaccurate. Not to mention his comment about "no viable alternatives" and that "many scientific questions remain unresolved". The only.... More
It would be interesting to actually know what part of climate change is not certain to Exxon Mobil. With everyone else in the world recognizing the already manifesting impacts of increased carbon and GHG's in the atmosphere, I say the burden of proof is on Exxon, not the other way around. In addition, when analyzing any risk that they are wrong, I would argue that even a 1% risk of climate catastrophe should be enough to transform business as usual.
Of course big oil does not want clean energy. They would stap their own mother in the heart for a dollar. They have lied,got us involved in illegal wars, killed and polluted the planet by dumping billions of tons of black death into the air and water. They are some sick depraved individuals who in a perfect world would be staring out of a prison cell. They have bought off politicians with their ill begotten wealth and waged a secret war with folks who care amount the air and water we drink and.... More
