'Recently, ExxonMobil has been putting out these ads that tout its efforts to
"reduce" emmissions. The one I always see is of a woman of color standing in
front of a backdrop of gas refineries and saying, "Heavy industry with low
emissions. Let's deliver." Sometimes, the ad will be longer and tout solutions
such as carbon capture and clean energy from "hydrogen" (e.g., usually by using
methane).
These ads imply that this company is trying to do something to combat the
worsening of climate change. Yet, given this company's historical (and current
efforts) to deny the full extent of climate change, we must view them with
heavy skepticism. ExxonMobil is not trying to "save the planet" but
perpetuating a form of greenwashing propaganda, and today, I wanted to explain
the reasons why this is the case.'
