I’m still trying to understand how these companies don’t have criminal charges against them for producing a product that so toxic.

Even when they do get caught, they laugh and move on with their destructive ways.

Climate change is such an old part of our world, it wasn’t called climate change but it was discovered in the early-mid 1800s. It was known, but only really dire in the last 60+ years; even that is so sickening to know that and companies continued dishonestly to kill us and the planet.

Lobbyist against protecting the environment and our health are a very nasty part of the problem. Money, as we know, is the root of their evil.

Some companies are owning up to their contribution to our environments sick state and are making beneficial changes. Car companies are pushing more EVs, and committing to help and not ignore. Food companies are working to move away from single-use plastics and more with the help of governments that are banning those plastics with a due date.

But for some messed up reason, oil and gas companies get money thrown at them to continue through subsidies. Money to expand, to be destructive on land that is not theirs, ignoring the rightful owners. Indigenous peoples all over the world are treated so badly, so disrespectfully; bullied, attacked and they are peaceful when they protest. The word reconciliation is thrown around by governments, but it would seem the meaning is lost.

Listen, those of us that want to protect our planet understand that it’s not an overnight thing. But if oil and gas companies are part of the solution then unfortunately they are going to lose out. Electric vehicles will solely and surely take over and oil and gas will be left behind and disappear. They can invest in green energy, instead of fighting what is inevitable: the world is going green.
