It's hard to know whether to laugh or scream,

The CEO of Exxon, the largest publicly traded oil company, blamed the
public for climate targets not being met, saying on the record that:

“We have opportunities to make fuels with lower carbon in it, but people
aren’t willing to spend the money to do that.”^1

If anyone isn't willing to spend the money to transition our economy off
of fossil fuels, it's Exxon. They are pushing ahead with aggressive fossil
fuel-expansion plans while basking in record profits.

It's time for President Biden to step in and say enough is enough.

on all liquified natural gas and related fossil fuel infrastructure
permits across all U.S. federal agencies?

This is just the latest ploy in Exxon’s decade-long playbook to deny
climate change and their role in it.

For decades they knew the risk of burning fossil fuels, but overtly misled
the public about those dangers. They’ve also spent millions of dollars on
lobbying and advertising, with the goal to make all of us more reliant on
fossil fuels so they can make even more money.^2

Now, when the risks can no longer be denied, they’re trying to remove any
responsibility and blame the public instead, while pocketing the profits
from the status quo. It must end.

We have an opportunity to pressure the Biden Administration to put a stop
to Exxon’s fossil fuel expansion plans.

President Biden’s Administration has recently made a significant stand
against fossil fuels, pausing approval of liquified natural gas (LNG)
export terminals.^3 Now, we must go one step further and make this pause
permanent.

[ [link removed] ]Can you take a moment to send a message to President Biden today?
Together we can show Exxon and others that we will rapidly transition away
from fossil fuels whether they like it or not.

Hundreds of calls and messages right now will help keep the pressure on in
this crucial moment when momentum is on our side.

Thank you for taking action.

In solidarity,
