Did you know that 100 active fossil fuel producers are linked to 71% of the industrial greenhouse gas emissions since 1988? That is the year in which human induced climate change was officially recognized by the IPCC. Those same companies (ExxonMobil, Shell, BP, Chevron, Peabody, Total and BHP Billiton along with a number of state owned companies largely out of Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iran, India & China) are responsible for over half of the greenhouse gas emissions emitted since the start of the industrial revolution.
We have work to do as individuals and demand is driving this, but companies need to take far more responsibility, we need increased regulations and enforced laws; not vague dream targets.
