Big Oil wants legal immunity. Congress must not give in. “Americans deserve not to be lied to by big corporations,” said @govjayinslee.bsky.social. “We should have no kings in the White House and no kings saying they’re above the law.”

Pepsi, Coca-Cola, and other Big Soda companies launched the “Keep America Beautiful” campaign just as they were massively scaling up plastic production. Big Soda continues to avoid accountability for the plastic pollution crisis—but now with help from Big Oil, their plastic supplier. 🙄

For the first time ever, an oil company has been forced by a court of law to remove claims that it’s leading the energy transition and aiming for net zero emissions. @emdashsanders.bsky.social explains why fossil fuel companies across the world should be paying attention. 👀

Chicago is known for its wind. But now climate change is bringing more extreme heat, flooding, and massive fluctuations in Lake Michigan's water levels—changes that are overwhelming the city. These damages have already cost the city billions, and Chicago now wants Big Oil to help pay the bill.

➡️ Big Oil knew their products would cause climate chaos. As CCI's @mikemeno.bsky.social explains, the industry saw “the writing on the wall” decades ago and launched a “massive deception campaign to spread climate denial and disinformation” and stifle clean energy competition.

Why are New Jersey residents paying for climate disasters that Big Oil knowingly fueled? "100-year floods happening every five to ten years...really cause havoc,” explains Essex County Commissioner Brendan Gill. “It shouldn’t be up to the average citizen to pay for what they did."

NPR’s @michaelcopley1.bsky.social asked about growing calls for insurance companies to take steps to make fossil fuel companies pay for climate damages. “There’s a real price tag” to climate disasters and “someone needs to pay for that,” said Ben Franta of @smithschool.ox.ac.uk

Home insurance rates are up, and Big Oil should pay. If the people of Hawai’i are left to bear the costs of climate disasters, "then we should allow the attorney general’s office to go and seek reimbursement from the companies that [are causing] these disasters,” said Senator Jarrett Keohokalole.

“Someone has to pay — and it will be us, if Big Oil gets immunity,” said Shemona Moreno of @350seattle.bsky.social. Big Oil knowingly fueling the climate crisis, and communities are paying the price. Congress must protect our right to hold polluting corporations accountable.

➡️ 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 products—and we all saw how juries responded to that.
