When a climate disaster hits, who pays? đ€ âIn the same way that we look to hold oil companies responsible for oil spills or workplace accidents,â says @samlmontano.bsky.social, âI think the approach of looking to hold the oil and gas industry accountable for climate damages makes a lot of sense.â

"Big Oil's decades of deception have kept us hooked on fossil fuels, and now American people are paying for it through $1 trillion a year in climate damages," said @jayapal.house.gov. Our ability to hold Big Oil accountable must be protected.
In 1998, API â Big Oil's largest trade association â declared that âvictory will be achieved when average citizens âunderstandâ (recognize) uncertainties in climate science.â CCI's Kert Davies explains why the "Victory Memo" is now considered one of the ugliest documents in climate denial history.
Even if you think Big Oil is innocent, Big Oil knows theyâre not. @darkush.bsky.social of @publiccitizen.bsky.social explains why the fossil fuel industry is determined to bury the evidence of their climate deception â and how communities are fighting back.
Big Oil companies are pushing Congress to give them legal immunity. Why? âThe only reason youâd want immunity is if youâve done something wrong,â explains CCIâs President Richard Wiles.
U.S. Senator Ted Cruz has taken roughly $5 million in campaign contributions from the oil and gas industry over the course of his career. Now heâs pushing a federal bill that would shield Big Oil companies from any laws or lawsuits seeking to hold them accountable for fueling the climate crisis. đ
âĄïž Big Oil companies are scared to face the evidence of their lies. The fossil fuel industry followed the same playbook Big Tobacco used decades earlier to deny the dangers of its productsâand we all saw how juries responded to that.
Hail stones are expected get up to 75% BIGGER in the next few decades. đ€Ż Worsening hail storms are already being observed in places like the Midwest, where home insurance premiums have skyrocketed in recent years. CCI's @kellysanks.bsky.social explains why Big Oil should help foot the bill.
Big Oil just said the quiet part out loud. The American Petroleum Institute, the nationâs largest oil and gas trade association, said this week that one of its top 2026 priorities is to stop âstate climate lawsuits.â
Our ability to hold Big Oil companies accountable for breaking the law is under attack. Communities across the country are fighting back. âïżŒ
Big Soda and Big Oil want us hooked on plastic. Together, they're working in lockstep to stop "any cap on plastics production," and make sure that efforts to meaningfully address the plastic pollution crisis fail. @joshvoorhees.bsky.social of @fieldnotes.co and @davisallen.bsky.social explain.

A senior DOJ official signed the motion to drop the Trump law firm appeals. Then the same official reversed course and kept the appeals alive. Same signature. Opposite decisions. That is not normal DOJ practice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTPad7aEHpQ

Now l understand why Lugnut was so flippant and sarcastic in his testimony. The GOP is complicit in hiding all they can about the perverts in their party that helped Epstein and even those who participated in sexual assaults and sex trafficking.
As much as MAGA dehumanizes immigrants, we have to re-humanize our neighbors, uplifting their stories. Stories of people like Allan Dabrio Marrero and his family. Allan was wrongfully detained at a routine Green Card hearing. Now he's free, we must use our pain to free others.
Speaking as a historian my opinion is that subjugation of peopleâs is achieved through war & authoritarianism. Those are the tools historically employed by our rulers. But now theyâre killing everything & destroying the planet to boot. The answer isnât to carry on regardless therein lies extinction!
