Of course they knew. They did not care.

🚨New internal documents provide more damning evidence that Shell knew decades ago that burning fossil fuels posed a threat to the climate, wildlife, plants, and humans. "Civilisation could prove a fragile thing,” one confidential 1989 memo warned. desmog.com/2023/03/31/lost-d…

The earth’s weakening magnetic field has as much impact (maybe more) on climate change as fossil fuel burning. They know this too!

But then there are ways we can engage in carbon sequestration, that don't require sacrificing our modern industry. But, if we continue to let countries like China and India be the manufacturing hubs, you won't see that, at least not in our lifetimes.

Exxon had an internal study in the late 70s, that they buried, and another in the early 80s. They knew, and chose the spend billions on propaganda instead of transitioning to clean energy that they still could've profited from. Companies think 3 months ahead in quarterly profits.
