    It’s common sense, but obfuscated by those still spending millions to deny climate change while the world literally burns around us. Gaslighting is a hell of a propaganda technique.

      also funding things like “curbing your carbon footprint companies”, so these pollutors dont need to lower thier emissions. seen them alot as a promotion in channels talking about nature, animals etc. the channel owners were cognizant enough to stop promoting it, once those companies have been called out as backed by OIL industry.

        Yes, this is a problem much better solved on an institutional scale best served by government regulations, not by individuals doing their part. These companies you mention attempt to shift the burden of responsibility onto those with the least power to affect any real change. It’s diabolical.
