Not surprised to see Gibson Dunn jumping on this case -- championing "corporate free speech" is kinda their thing. www.exxonknews.org/p/the-law-fi... of course they want to get this issue in front of the Supreme Court (credit to @amywestervelt.bsky.social for warning us all on that one)

yyyikes reminder: the Trump tax credits applauded here made it more profitable to capture carbon to... drill for more oil. www.exxonknews.org/p/exxons-new... guess that type of thing is fine if you see oil companies as partners in solving climate change 🫣

Exclusive by me: How thousands fossil fuel lobbyists got access to UN climate talks – and then oil and gas companies kept drilling www.theguardian.com/environment/...

was in Spain when Mamdani was elected and -- can confirm this was largely the sentiment! many many congratulations upon hearing I was from NY www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Today a story I've spent months reporting and writing runs on @desmog.com and @theguardian.com. It's based on hundreds of exclusive documents revealing how Exxon funded the rightwing Atlas Network to spread climate denial across Latin America and the Global South. www.desmog.com/2025/11/03/a...

A North Dakota judge just reduced the $666 million in damages a jury demanded Greenpeace pay Energy Transfer to $345 million. Somehow there's still not a final judgement tho, 7 months after the trial wrapped up. northdakotamonitor.com/2025/10/29/j...

Exxon is using the First Amendment to shield itself from scrutiny and regulation, experts say. The oil giant & others have also claimed that lawsuits across the country accusing them of misleading the public about climate change violate their free speech rights. www.exxonknews.org/p/exxon-uses...

its wild how many media outlets take oodles of oil and gas money. like, immoral and craven sums

NEW: A Paris Court has ruled that French oil giant TotalEnergies is misleading consumers with claims about its "net-zero ambitions" and role in the energy transition. It's the first court judgment against an oil company for those claims. www.exxonknews.org/p/oil-giant-...

Latest from the dumpster fire that is the USA ... Trump EPA seeks to weaken scrutiny for some of US’s most toxic chemicals www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Apparently rolling back pollution rules is essential government work. “One regulation nearing completion would loosen power plant limits on emissions of mercury, a neurotoxin that impairs brain development,” per two anonymous EPA officials

It's tough to explain exactly how nutty this new report from fossil fuel industry consultant Wood Mackenzie is, but I'm going to try in a short thread. As you can guess: 1 trillion barrels of oil is...............................A LOT archive.ph/grTVe

"Fossil fuel companies are the biggest cause of the climate crisis, and their political power is the biggest barrier to solving it,” Oil Change Int'l's research director Kelly Trout told @emdashsanders.bsky.social. bit.ly/3L8Zzna

Waiting for oil and gas majors to lead the "pivot" to clean energy? Don't hold your breath. New @nature.com study shows that fossil fuel companies have only accounted for marginal share of renewable energy generation, decades after promising to lead. 1/ www.exxonknews.org/p/study-oil-...

"They’re mining a lot more now, the coal trucks and everything are running, but there’s no benefits for the coal miners coming in." www.nytimes.com/2025/10/13/c...

a blatant violation of our most basic first amendment rights

Exist in public? They can arrest you. Sitting quietly in your home. They can arrest you, and take all your stuff

A new study in @nature.com shows the world’s biggest oil and gas companies contribute less than 1.5% to renewable energy capacity — despite claiming for years to be leading the energy transition. one law prof said it "could influence a jury" in climate lawsuits www.exxonknews.org/p/study-oil-...

White House offers white glove, concierge service to fossil fuel companies. Meanwhile, wind and solar aren’t even allowed to check into the Motel 6. Great scoop from @jakespring.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

More than 40 Trump administration picks tied directly to oil, gas and coal, analysis shows www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The fossil fuel industry is suddenly concerned about Trump trying to withdraw permits for wind projects because they fear a future admin could do the same to oil projects. Might have been worth thinking about before...

The top energy official for the U.S. government — which will now provide more than $34 billion a year to the fossil fuel industry — is claiming there are no oil and gas subsidies. DOE officials are banned from using the words "Tax breaks/tax credits/subsidies”. www.exxonknews.org/p/the-fossil...

In St. James Parish, Exxon plans to lay carbon pipeline alarmingly close to homes, businesses | The Lens thelensnola.org/2025/09/18/i...

A California bill awaiting Newsom’s signature would set a pathway to eliminate the state’s trailblazing moratorium on pipelines used to transport carbon dioxide. The fossil fuel industry lobbied to shape the legislation, which could allow pipelines to be built without strict distance requirements.

Excellent new piece from @emdashsanders.bsky.social on why the Trump admin is so keen to deny the existence of fossil fuel subsidies, featuring @whitehouse.senate.gov, @doctorvive.bsky.social, and @collinrees.bsky.social. www.exxonknews.org/p/the-fossil...

Cuomo is bought by oil & gas, real estate, wall street... all the big polluters.👎 As Gov, Cuomo tried to override NYC Local Law 97, the world's most-important city-level climate/jobs law. 😡 Guess who helped stop him then? Initials are Z-M 😀 www.exposedbycmd.org/2025/09/30/c...

“We are very untrusting of the oil and gas industry to carry this out safely, because they’ve already had their infrastructure leaking for so many years."

“With federal safety rules on carbon dioxide pipelines eliminated and no replacements in sight, it will be up to states to keep communities safe, said Caram of Pipeline Safety Trust.” www.exxonknews.org/p/california...

Excellent piece by @emdashsanders.bsky.social for @levernews.com California set to unleash CO2 pipelines for CCS, thanks in part to fossil fuel lobbyists:

“We are very untrusting of the oil and gas industry to carry this out safely, because they’ve already had their infrastructure leaking for so many years."

California is setting a path to lift its moratorium on CO2 pipelines with new safety regs. But the state won't set a distance requirement protecting communities, which oil lobbyists opposed. Advocates say it's a recipe for disaster. from me & @levernews.com www.exxonknews.org/p/california...

California risks setting a dangerous precedent as states struggle to protect people from the oil industry’s buildout of carbon dioxide pipelines. www.levernews.com/a-climate-le...

Reminder as Maui is once again on fire that the state and county are suing oil majors for covering up the dangers of burning fossil fuels, including re: wildfires. “Anybody who’s tracking the general evolution of climate science knows that this was what was predicted." truthout.org/articles/haw...

Here's a piece I wrote two years ago when St Gobain was headline sponsor of Climate Week. Docs show the company downplayed the risks of the toxic PFOA chemicals they were dumping into communities' water. They're still a "gold partner" this year www.exxonknews.org/p/climate-we...

After that incident, advocates and pipeline safety experts pushed for updated regulations for carbon dioxide pipelines from the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA). thelensnola.org/2025/09/18/i...
