Why are ExxonValdez and BP [British Petroleum] advertising on Television? Do they hope ads will cause increased sales? It all seems like Propaganda to convince the public that they are NOT EVIL.

What is this organization called Power Past Impossible? They say Climate Change is Wonderful!  Warm Sunny Days in Alaska All Year 'Round!

Those ExxonValdez ads just really creep me out... They constantly show Trees and Meadows and the Park... and Biology research into alternative slime based fuel... BioWillie!

American Petroleum Institute Launches Pro-Oil Ad Campaign During Super Bowl





Divestment is the opposite of an investment – it simply means getting rid of stocks, bonds, or investment funds that are unethical or morally ambiguous.
When you invest your money, you might buy stocks, bonds, or other investments that generate income for you. Universities (and colleges in the US), religious organizations, retirement funds, and other institutions put billions in these same kinds of investments to generate income to help them run. Fossil fuel investments are a risk for both investors and the planet, so we’re calling on institutions to divest from these companies.
Divestment is also to end to fossil fuel sponsorship. Fossil fuels companies cultivate sponsorship relationships to help create a ‘social licence to operate’. This contributes to the veneer of legitimacy that enables them to keep expanding operations at a time of climate crisis and to stifle the demands for justice of those communities who live on the frontline of their destructive, polluting operations.
We are an international network of campaigns and campaigners working toward freeing communities from fossil fuels. While each campaign is independently run and may bring different emphases and asks depending on their local context, the majority of campaigns are asking institutions to:
  • Immediately freeze any new investment in fossil fuel companies;
  • Divest from direct ownership and any commingled funds that include fossil fuel public equities and corporate bonds within 5 years
  • End their fossil fuels sponsorship

Narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio, CARBON tells stories of communities fighting climate change. The film can be seen at greenworldrising.org, where viewers can also take action with resources to contact elected officials and spread the word. "This film is meant to be an asset for the climate movement and to generate momentum for the global reduction of carbon emissions," said Leila Conners, director of the film, which was produced by George DiCaprio, Mathew Schmid, Roee Sharon and Earl Katz, and presented by Thom Hartmann. Conners added, "We must move toward renewable energy and to create a real solution, hopefully well before the COP 21 in Paris in 2015.” The next three films in the Green World Rising series will be released in succession leading up to the UN Climate Summit in New York this September.
