If we had free speech, people could get away with yelling "fire" in a movie theater, when there is no fire. What Exxon Knew and When UPDATE: Part 2 is now available A few days ago Eli pointed out that the damaging "Secret Science" was what commercial research had uncovered and then covered up. Obvious examples were tobacco and pharma, and the Rabett speculated what the fossil fuel industry had done. At about the same time MT, in a guest post at ATTP (whatsamatter Mike, Eli not good enough for you?) concluded that it was not possible to construct a climate model that did not lead to significant global warming from increased greenhouse gas emissions, because if it was, the Exxon's of the world would have done so and shouted the results from the tree tops. Today, Neela Banerjee, Lisa Song and David Hasemyer at Inside Climate News, lift the veil and detail exactly what Exxon knew (a lot), when they knew it, (by 1980 or so) and when they started the cover-up funding climate change denial (late 1980s). The interesting question that remains is that since they did not disclose their knowledge to shareholders, will some lawyers get rich? Posted by EliRabett at 8:57 AM rabett.blogspot.com
