The earliest writings we've found that talk about Co2 causing global warming, are from the 1862.

Standard Oil Company opened 1865.
Chevron opened 1879.
Shell opened 1907.
B&P opened 1909.

So on and so forth...

The research that proves oil companies knew they were contributing to global warming is older than basically any oil company you can name.

They've been actively suppressing scientific knowledge we discovered over 150 years ago, for the same amount of time - and they still haven't stopped.

Generations and generations of liars.

That's why transmission fees cost more than the actual energy used, gotta keep those profits hitting new record highs every year no matter how hard it makes it for working people.
