bs2> US military emissions tend to be overlooked in climate change studies. It’s very difficult to get consistent data from the Pentagon and across US government departments. In fact, the United States insisted on an exemption for reporting military emissions in the 1997 <a href="https://mstdn.jp/tags/KyotoProtocol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KyotoProtocol</a>.

Furthermore, experts agree that Exxon became a leader in campaigns of confusion. By 1989 the company had helped create the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GlobalClimateCoalition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GlobalClimateCoalition</a> (disbanded in 2002) to question the scientific basis for concern about climate change. It also helped to prevent the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USA</a> from signing the international treaty on climate known as the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/KyotoProtocol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KyotoProtocol</a> in 1998 to control <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GreenhouseGases" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GreenhouseGases</a> . Exxon’s tactic not only worked on the U.S. but also stopped other countries, such as <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/China" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#China</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/India" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#India</a>, from signing the treaty. At that point, 'a lot of things unraveled,' Oreskes says."But experts are still piecing together Exxon’s misconception puzzle. Last summer the Union of Concerned Scientists released a complementary investigation to the one by InsideClimate News, known as the Climate Deception Dossiers (pdf). 'We included a memo of a coalition of fossil-fuel companies where they pledge basically to launch a big communications effort to sow doubt,' says union president Kenneth Kimmel. 'There’s even a quote in it that says something like ‘Victory will be achieved when the average person is uncertain about climate science.’ So it’s pretty stark.'"Since then, Exxon has spent more than $30 million on <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ThinkTanks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThinkTanks</a> that promote ClimateDenial, according to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Greenpeace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Greenpeace</a>. Although experts will never be able to quantify the damage Exxon’s misinformation has caused, 'one thing for certain is we’ve lost a lot of ground,' Kimmell says. Half of the greenhouse gas emissions in our atmosphere were released after 1988. 'I have to think if the fossil-fuel companies had been upfront about this and had been part of the solution instead of the problem, we would have made a lot of progress [today] instead of doubling our greenhouse gas emissions.'"<a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/exxon-knew-about-climate-change-almost-40-years-ago/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/exxon-knew-about-climate-change-almost-40-years-ago/</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ClimateCrisis</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ClimateChange</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateCatastrophe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ClimateCatastrophe</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ExtremeWeather" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ExtremeWeather</a>
