#Exxon's climate opponents were smeared after a private email was handed to the media, including @WSJ.

Was project "Rainbow," a hack-for-hire operation, responsible?

Now, WSJ's own @cmatthews9 asks: who commissioned it?

$XOM denies involvement. 1/

2/ Yep #Russia does hack & leak operations.

But so does a mercenary industry that gets less attention.

Even as their handiwork shows up in major US policy debates.

3/ The WSJ piece shows just how far that presumed-hacked email travelled..

News reports, PR materials, even #Exxon's opening statement in a trial..

But also the complexities of pinning down the ultimately-responsible parties.

Mercenary hack & leak ops are tricky. ImageImage

#Dow plastered #Singapore with ads for a sneaker #recycling program, promising to turn shoes into playground tracks. But the shoes it collected in "recycling" bins got dumped illegally in #Indonesia.

An Meinungen zu #Luetzerath herrscht ja kein Mangel; auch meine war schon partiell in dem einen oder anderen Rant, Tweet, Kommentar etc drin. Deswegen wollte ich eigentl. mal die Klappe halten.

Man kann diskutieren, ob die Protesform angemessen sei, ob das CO2 aus #Luetzerath nicht durch den ETS eh kompensiert wird, und, wenn's denn Spass macht, auch, dass die Grünen selbst für den jetzigen Rechtsrahmen mit gestimmt haben, der die Räumung ermöglicht, alles fein. Aber

🇷🇺🔥🇺🇦 #Rusia vs #Ucrania - Día 227 - #URGENTE - Iniciamos #hilo sobre la #GuerraEnUcrania.

🟥 El puente de #Kerch ha caído. Se desconocen las causas, pero esto da pie a Rusia a escalar y es un salto notable en el conflicto.

🟥 #RETWEEET
🇷🇺🔥🇺🇦 #Rusia vs #Ucrania - Día 227 - Lo del tren ardiendo es una incógnita. Podría ser una coincidencia o un fuego derivado de la explosión que ha derribado un tramo completo del puente. La plataforma intacta podría apuntar a ataque a los pilares.

🇷🇺🔥🇺🇦 #Rusia vs #Ucrania - Día 227 - De uno de los puentes han caído al menos dos tramos, lo que lo deja totalmente inservible. #Kerch.

🟥 #Tass apunta a un camión bomba...

Donnons un nom aux vagues de chaleur : celui des responsables du réchauffement climatique

Après #TotalEnergies1 en juin, et parce que les raisons ne manquent pas, poursuivons l'effort et appelons cette terrible canicule qui vient #TotalEnergies2

A dérouler ⤵️⤵️⤵️
1/n
Avant d'expliquer pourquoi garder le nom #TotalEnergies, précisons que cette nouvelle vague de chaleur pourrait approcher l'intensité de "la canicule de 2003, voire peut-être la dépasser", selon le climatologue @cassouman40 : vers dix jours au-dessus de 35-40 °C?

#TotalEnergies2
Pour le dire trivialement, si vous avez eu chaud au mois de juin, vous allez suer avec la vague de chaleur qui vient. Pour tout comprendre à son origine et à sa dynamique (intensité, durée, etc), lisez donc ce long thread explicatif de @cassouman40

Die @SZ berichtet: Das Bundes-Innenministerium @bmi_bund hat heimlich Riesensummen in #AntiKlimaAktien von Fossilkonzernen gepumpt und nennt das seinen "Beitrag zum Klimaschutz".

Wie nennt ihr das, @Luisamneubauer @urgewald @parents4future?
sueddeutsche.de/wirtschaft/oel…
Wir sind wütend! In diesem THREAD erklären wir die seit Jahren laufenden #AntiKlimaAktien-Deals deutscher Ministerien mit Fracking- & Öl-Konzernen.

SPOILER: Es ist sogar SCHLIMMER, als die SZ berichtet...

Wie wir alle mit #Divestment diesen Mist beenden können, steht hier: 👇
Kurz vor der Bundestagswahl 2021 war’s. Da hat das @bmi_bund noch schnell sein AKTIENDEPOT UMGEBAUT, das die Pensionen v.a. von Bundesbeamten mitfinanzieren soll. 10,8 Milliarden Euro stecken sie allein in Aktien. Kann man machen, aber…

#BP #Shell #Exxon & co ont annoncé quitter la Russie. Pas @TotalEnergies qui a décidé de rester. Pourquoi ?

Nous avons compulsé les données : sans les réserves de gaz russe, la stratégie et l'avenir industriels de @TotalEnergies s'effondrent
tlab321783030.files.wordpress.com/2022/03/totale…
Depuis, le début de l'invasion de l'Ukraine par la Russie, @TotalEnergies & @PPouyanne minimisent leur présence en Russie qui ne représenterait que "3 à 5% des revenus du groupe". Nous montrons au contraire que la Russie est la clé de voûte de l'avenir de @TotalEnergies.
Alors que @TotalEnergies a fait du gaz le moteur de sa croissance future, nous montrons que la Russie représente 30 % de sa production gazière mondiale actuelle (alors du'Arctic LNG n'a pas commencé à produire), et 61% de sa production qui peut être acheminé en Europe par gazoduc

Investors + resource-rich countries + civil society ALL want to see greater corporate accountability for #oil #gas & #mining co's commitments to #transparency.

So why does that seem so hard to achieve at the global #EITI Board mtg this week?

THREAD🧵

1/
Quick history:
The Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative #EITI grew out of civil society calls since the late '90s for mining, oil & gas companies to #PublishWhatYouPay to governments around the world.

The idea was to shine a🔦on corruption +💸💸flows in the sector.

2/
In 2002-2003, @EITIorg was born, as “an initiative built on the notion of equal transparency from the governments and the companies” with participation from representatives of governments, companies, and civil society organizations.

Warum sollte sich die #Klimaschutz-Bewegung intensiver mit der aktuellen Pro-#Atomkraft-Kampangne befassen und was hat das mit verantwortungsvollem Journalismus in Zeiten der #Klimakrise zu tun? Ein #Thread. (1/x)
Seit dem 2. #Atomausstieg von 2011 ist das Thema Atomkraft in Deutschland durch. So denken viele - selbst die Atomkonzerne - und so habe auch ich lange Zeit gedacht. Der Atom-Drops ist gelutscht. Warum auf die letzten Zuckungen der Pro-Atomkraft-Sekte überhaupt reagieren? (2/x)
Doch abgesehen davon, dass selbst in Deutschland der #Atomausstieg längst noch nicht vollendet ist (s. #Urenco/Lingen/Euratom): Der nuklear-industrielle Komplex hat längst noch nicht aufgegeben. Im Gegenteil. Mit gewaltiger PR-Energie versucht die Atom-Lobby im Windschatten (3/x)

Die #Triell-Moderator:innen ließen #Laschet diesen Unfug durchgehen:
"Fakt ist, seit den 90er Jahren wissen wir von Weltklima-Ereignissen." #Falsch.

Die 1. Weltklimakonferenz fand 1979 statt, aufgrund des Wissens um den #Treibhauseffekt, den Eunice Foote schon 1856 beschrieb.
1/
Ein Jahr zuvor, 1978, demonstrierte Hoimar von Dittfurth im @ZDF mit einem genial-dramatischen Experiment den #Treibhauseffekt.


Die Infrarotaktivität des #CO2 hätte der damals 17-Jährige #Laschet schon verstehen können. #Triell

Die menschengemachte #Erderhitzung wird schon seit den 1940en erforscht. Der Ölkonzern #Exxon hat dazu Studien erstellen lassen, deren Ergebnisse die Umweltorganisation @ExxonKnew publik machte.

Relative to #ParisGoals they are all grossly insufficient on most metrics Image
TL;DR? Check out Kelly's blog: priceofoil.org/2020/09/23/big…
STL;DR? #Exxon and #Chevron manage to be grossly insufficient on all 10 metrics.

#BP is the least bad performer, partially aligned on 2 metrics, insufficient on 3, grossly insufficient on 5

My take on the week that was, and what’s next. #OOTT #EFT #shale #OilPrice #crudeoil #OPEC

When oil became waste: a week of turmoil for crude, and more pain to come reut.rs/2xYTiFz
So a bit more on this. A lot right now rests on what happens next, both in terms of various economic regions trying to recover a bit and find ways to do a bit more business - and whether that's possible. #OOTT #OPEC
After all it's not often you see a nation like Azerbaijan tell a BP-led consortium that yes, you have to stop producing. Usually the big oil companies are exempt from this sort of thing. #OOTT #OPEC

Not anymore. @dmitryZ_reuters

Why The World Capital Markets Will Not Recover To Their Past Highs

A THREAD

1. Markets work on 2 things. Earnings and anticipation of earnings. Good anticipation begets good results and bad begets bad. Many other things being variable.

2. Another thing that matters as well
is Monetary Policy and Liquidity injection by governments in bad times.

3. American markets being the largest ones in the world lead the way for other markets in most cases. Not all but many. Specially the European markets follow suit of Dow.

4. Chinese markets of late have
Also become interdependent to a major extent because of the globalisation of the past 20 years and American MNC earnings of about $2.7 trillion of imports into China.

5. When the market is in a euphoric state, bulls are in control and bulls at times become exuberant
