Corporations call emissions a drop in the ocean: counting the real cost
Original: Corporations claim their fossil fuel emissions are a drop in the ocean. But what if we could count the real cost?
A new examination challenges the frequent corporate argument that individual companies' fossil fuel emissions are insignificant compared to global totals. The piece asks what the true cost of those emissions would be if they were fully counted, pushing back on a common justification used by major polluters to downplay their share of responsibility for climate change.
Why now: Ongoing public and media scrutiny of corporate climate accountability and greenwashing claims.
