Bucks County, Pa, Sues Oil Companies For Climate Doom
As I always say, the sued companies should simply refuse to provide, at a minimum, their products to the government of Bucks County, which is just north of Killadelphia, er, Philly. Let’s see how well that goes for their operations, especially when it gets to be winter. And maybe stop selling altogether in the county. Let’s see how people enjoy that for commuting. I wonder what the citizens think, since Biden only won 51.7% of the vote
Bucks Co. lawsuit alleges ‘big oil’ intentionally lied about climate crisis for decades
Bucks County officials, on Monday, announced a sweeping lawsuit targeting, what county leaders called, “titans of the fossil fuel industry,’ alleging the companies intentionally deceived the public about the role of oil in accelerating the climate crisis.
As detailed in a statement on the lawsuit, officials allege that the companies named in the court documents — BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, Exxon Mobil, Philips 66, Shell and API — have “known for decades, with startling precision, that their products would bring about climate change and destabilization.”
“These companies have known since at least the 1950s that their ways of doing business were having calamitous effects on our planet, and rather than change what they were doing or raise the alarm, they lied to all of us,” said Bucks County Commissioner Gene DiGirolamo, in a statement. “The taxpayers should not have to foot the bill for these companies and their greed.”
In a statement, officials said the lawsuit — through which the county is seeking a financial amount for damages, though it doesn’t explicitly specify a total amount sought — seeks to hold these “big oil” companies accountable for the damage that oil has done to the environment.
If there were actually journalists left in the nation they would have asked DiGirolamo and the rest who voted for this if they drive fossil fueled vehicles themselves. If they take air travel. Have natural gas at home. They did try and contact the fossil fuels companies.
