Your first link, Where is the lie??

"
Chevron shares the concerns of governments and the public about climate change risks and recognizes that the use of fossil fuels to meet the world’s energy needs is a contributor to rising greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the earth’s atmosphere. GHGs contribute to an increase in global temperatures. We believe that taking prudent, practical and cost effective action to address climate change risks is the right thing to do. Mitigation of GHG emissions, adaptation to climate change and continuation of scientific and technological research should all be considered.

GHGs come from a variety of sources – power generation, transportation, agriculture, land use, manufacturing, and other activities. Fossil fuels – coal, oil and natural gas – release carbon dioxide during production and consumption. Fossil fuels are also the primary source of energy for the global economy and a contributor to a rising quality of life in many parts of the world. Based on current projections of population and economic growth, the world’s demand for energy will increase substantially over the next 25 years. The majority of that energy will be provided by fossil fuels, even as lower-carbon alternatives continue to emerge.

Reducing GHG emissions in the face of rising energy demand presents a formidable challenge to our global society. As we work to address climate change risks, we must create solutions that achieve environmental objectives without undermining growth of the global economy and our aspirations for a better quality of life for all."

So, stevo, you disagree with Chevron then. They accept climate change including the need to mitigate emissions and the need to continue scientific study of the issue. You seem to support neither of those positions.
