A shame you're so far off the pace Tapdancer, but jolly good show for at least having a lash. Many don't and they don't know if they're coming or going.
Sorry to revert to a Kindergarten of the Air approach for you Tapdancer, but one step at a time.
The following statement is Exxonmobil's position on climate change. It's written in fairly plain English. XOM is one of the largest oil and gas companies on Earth.
"We have the same concerns as people everywhere – and that is how to provide the world with the energy it needs while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
"The risk of climate change is clear and the risk warrants action. Increasing carbon emissions in the atmosphere are having a warming effect. There is a broad scientific and policy consensus that action must be taken to further quantify and assess the risks.
"ExxonMobil is taking action by reducing greenhouse gas emissions in its operations, helping consumers reduce their emissions, supporting research that leads to technology breakthroughs and participating in constructive dialogue on policy options.
"Addressing climate change, providing economic opportunity and lifting billions out of poverty are complex and interrelated issues requiring complex solutions. There is a consensus that comprehensive strategies are needed to respond to these risks. "
