The Power of BIG Oil
« on: April 27, 2022, 09:57:22 AM »
The Power of Big Oil (Part One: Denial)
FRONTLINE’s three-part series The Power of Big Oil examines the fossil fuel industry’s history of denying climate change by delaying action and casting doubt on scientific research. Part One: Denial charts the fossil fuel industry’s early research on climate change and investigates the efforts to sow seeds of doubt about the science.

The Power of Big Oil (Part Two: Doubt)
FRONTLINE examines the fossil fuel industry’s history of casting doubt and delaying action on climate change. Part Two of this three-part series explores the industry’s efforts to stall climate policy, even as evidence about climate change grew more certain in the new millennium.

I watched part 1 but was disappointed to see how they narrative has a political agenda instead of the good ol days where they at least attempted to be journalistic.

That seems to be something very top secret for the rest of the world to know as neither of the videos was available.

PBS is not top secret but Finland might be filtering it.

An American conspiracy!  :old:

Finland doesn't filter anything! You'd have to go 100 miles East from here to find a country filtering foreign content.

In this case though I'd like to believe it's a copyright issue.

PBS stands for Public Bull Sh*t

Glad it is finally warming up here. Been cool to cold way into the late part of April.

I read in the news today up north they are concerned about ice on the lakes still. Just 10 more days till fishing season. They are hoping the ice melt.

Lets go after our energy production. Maybe after we kill off oil we can go after food production too.

Big Oil is so powerful we're paying premium prices for foreign oil instead of pumping our own.

Well, that's a rather exaggerated and extreme opinion. :)
