Did you see this news?
House Democrats in Congress are launching a probe into Trump’s ties with Big Oil Executives.1 This should be bigger news. According to the Washington Post, Trump said “that giving $1 billion would be a “deal” because of the taxation and regulation the oil companies would avoid thanks to him, according to people with knowledge of the meeting.” 2
Blatant, immoral corruption is not only wrong, it’s the reason we are unable to take any meaningful climate action to address the current crisis. The fossil fuel industry’s greed for ever-increasing profits is having a detrimental impact on our lives, and they must be stopped.
In solidarity,
