Big Oil ‘support’ of Carbon Pricing
For decades, fossil fuel companies have misrepresented their own analysis of how emissions from their products contribute significantly to global warming. They have undermined efforts to address their emissions and climate change by sowing division within the environmental community and among the environmental justice community about the efficacy and impact of various policies.
Despite statements in apparent support, carbon taxes are not enthusiastically supported by oil companies. They claim they support carbon taxes, not because they believe in the policy but because they want to fight against stricter national rules.
