“With the world’s leading scientists in agreement on the science behind global warming, how are multinational corporations preparing for climate change? Some, like Exxon Mobile, continue to squeeze the last drops of profit out of any oil field they get their hands on while paying scientists to deny climate change. Some see profitability in adapting to a more energy-efficient world. And then there’s the third group: the greenwashers — those hoping to come off as enviro-friendly while they make a buck (or a few million) off our global crisis. Greenwashing is nothing new, but there’s a huge difference between covering up environmentally damaging activities with an eco-friendly gesture or two and touting your pollution-based business as the solution to the climate crisis.” (10/07/08)
