ExxonMobil, one of the most powerful players in the energy industry, is at a crossroads. For more than a century, the company made billions selling and refining oil and gas and was seen as financially and politically untouchable. But today, with mounting concerns around climate change, the company is coming under pressure from both outside and within to transform its business and figure out a place in a lower carbon future. Watch the video to learn about how ExxonMobil started out as a company making kerosene, why some blame it for a climate change misinformation campaign, and where the company says it will generate future profits as the world transitions away from oil and gas.
The full documentary, “ExxonMobil at the Crossroads,” is streaming now on Peacock and CNBC.com.

This is how they're destroying the Planet.
sure, biofuels for the oil industry, why not. In the 1970s, reports were the oil companies owned 60% of U.S. coal reserves.

This Khanna guy is a real witch – hunter.. There is one big problem with this whole' CO2 boggy man argument', that Khanna is basing his entire political career and attacks on. For the last 450 million years… drum roll… CO2 has followed temperature changes, not caused them. The graphs are clear, the ice records are clear, the carbon dating and rings are clear. CO2 follows temperatures. And since that is true, the argument that we humans are to blame, and Exxon is to blame, cannot be true. A slight problem…

Plants are the best way to collect carbon dioxide.
This just seems like one big paid for advertisement by Exxon…
No they are not going to transition away from crude. This is just a PR stunt.
There is nothing such as climate change drill more oil we need more and more oil 🛢️
Wait a minute!!! carbon capture technique kind of looks suspiciously similar to the idea of clean coal? Orange man bad.
They MADE MAD MONEY $$$$$$$. So, why not pay your fair share of federal tax on profits? You get government assistance, and you rely on the US military to protect your interest around the 🌎 🗺

A big "Thank you!" to Exxon and Chevron for not cutting my dividends a few years back!
Classic typical democrats huh
You think you're gonna punk me like that and get away with it right?
The day I bought shorts on Exxon it shot up 4 dollars in 1 day. When I sold those puts for a loss today it went back down 4 dollars after I sold. I think that's enough evidence for me to say this is deliberate.
Without oil and gas the world would never reach this far hyproicy. And he drives a car that use gas and diesel
Exxon/Mobil DID NOT START OUT AS A COMPANY MAKING KEROSENE. Exxon/Mobil is the merger between two entities spun off from Standard Oil as a result of Standard being convicted in Federal Court. These lying murderous SOBs can't even tell the truth about their own history.
Screw the virtue signalling and moralizing a culture signalling. Bleep a company needing religion. ExxonMobile is and ENERGY company, I hope they have come to realize that and are getting efficient as far as producing balanced liquid fuelled energy.
We would have had electric cars a 100 years ago if not for Standard Oil.
did you know that co2 is injected into greenhouses to have plants higer yeald. up to 30% bigger tomatos ..exc
so more co2 more the plants grow… so… "follow the money" and who gets to get fuckd most in co2 taxes ? the little people. yep, YOU!!!
Its good if we have things for future for marxist economics is evolution in capitalist accumulation to put existence of labouring force from 18th century where ofcourse one can say there is useless development of machinery with automation and robotics
Wait a minute! It's Exxon mobile? My phone always thought it was eggs on mobile. I guess my smartphone wasn't quite as smart as Samsung thought it was
Nuclear !
Oil is used for everything, why are they only going after oil companies. If they want to be less dependent on oil then stop supporting things that are made using oil. Like shoes, plastics, clothing, etc. The oil companies just pull it out of the ground.
Hint: There is no reason to think that oil is a biofuel. Also: besides water, it’s the most plentiful liquid on Earth. Lastly, we have technology that eliminates the need for oil, but Exxon owns a standing army where no armchair general in an AC office with a $1 million budget will EVER say a word out of line and will gladly send boys to their deaths . Patriots! That’s a laugh. ! Thoughts and prayers to the Sandy Hook parents. May the Billion $ ease their suffering.
I really hope these guys develop a biofuel and reduce emissions without going full electric.
This report is totally stupid,
Oil out of the ground is A Bio/fuel,
Again this piece is totally stupid,
I’m trying to figure out who’s paying for this garbage to disseminated. ,
I do not trust them, they are still evil!
