The results of our hurricane survey are in, John, and the winner is…
ExxonMobil.
A whopping 61% of respondents said the first hurricane of 2025 should be named after this Big Oil giant, and for good reason. Exxon has made billions off fueling the climate crisis, while communities are left with the wreckage of homes and lives lost to more frequent and more ferocious hurricanes.
Add your name: It’s time for ExxonMobil to pay for its mess.
Exxon has been dodging responsibility for decades. Not only have they emitted 40 billion metric tons of greenhouse gases since 1965, but they also cast doubt and hid the truth about fossil fuels’ impact on our climate for more than 30 years.1,2
By the mid-2000s, their strategy changed to acknowledging human-induced climate change — but blamed individual consumers for their personal energy use, deflecting attention away from Exxon’s much bigger role in fueling this crisis.3
They profit, they greenwash, they put the responsibility on everyday people, all while continuing to pump more oil out of the ground when we know the dangers.
All of this got us where we are today. More frequent, ferocious hurricanes are destroying homes, entire communities, and livelihoods — with Black, Brown and Native communities being hardest hit of all.
Last year alone, climate disasters cost Americans $182.7 billion in damages.4 Why is it that we the people are left to pay for a problem created by this massive corporation?
ExxonMobil has been leaving us the tab for its dirty mess for decades. They should pay for the damage they’ve already caused and the damage of what’s to come.
Add your name to our petition if you agree: It’s time for ExxonMobil to pay up!
In solidarity,
