🚨Understand why people are disrupting Shell’s AGM. Short thread. Oil companies knew for sure by the 70s that their product would dangerously heat the world. They spend $1Billion a year trying to confuse and lie to the public about climate change science:
Oil companies pretend they want to lead the transition to renewable green energy but in reality they only care about their profits. They spend millions every year lobbying against green energy #Shell #ShellAGM #JustStopOil #ExtinctionRebellion forbes.com/sites/niallmcc…
Oil companies fund shady think tanks - front groups - and politicians to attack climate change legislation and anyone advocating for it #ShellAGM opendemocracy.net/en/dark-money-…
Oil companies reach into the highest levels of global government via funding think tanks such as the Heritage Foundation who then fund politicians and journalists to whip up culture wars and other issues to distract the public #ShellAGM #JustStopOil opendemocracy.net/en/liz-truss-h…
The must watch BBC/PBS documentary ‘Big Oil V The World’ explains how the oil companies have stopped the world taking vital climate legislation when all of us are in danger #ShellAGM #Shell #JustStopOil #ExtinctionRebellion

Can you imagine the difference it would make if climate scientists like NASA’s Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman were given the coverage that Paris Hilton has had in the British media this week. This is why we’re in deep trouble and the media can’t see it @radioleary @AlisonHammond twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
