ExxonMobil's own scientists accurately predicted future global warming in reports dating back to the late 1970s and early 1980s, but the company continued to cast doubt on climate science, a new report finds.
ExxonMobil’s own scientists accurately predicted future global warming in reports dating back to the late 1970s and early 1980s, despite the company publicly continuing for years to cast doubt on climate science and lobby against climate action, according to a new analysis. Researchers examined climate projections produced between 1977 and 2003 by Exxon, one of the world’s biggest oil and gas companies.
” “ExxonMobil’s understanding of climate science has developed along with that of the broader scientific community,” he said. Casting ‘doubt and uncertainty’ Despite its own modeling showing fossil fuel use would lead to global warming, Exxon’s public communications raised doubt about climate change, including taking out ads in major publications suggesting climate science was poorly understood and scientists were divided.
