- Climate change refugees
  Posted by SoxFirst
  Global warming is creating the climate change refugee and that will present a massive security risk for businesses and governments. At least one billion people - almost equivalent to the entire population of India - will be forced from their homes between now and 2050 because of rising seas, droughts and storms.

- Scientists paid to trash climate study
  Posted by SoxFirst
  Much attention at the end of last week on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report which predicted dire consequences of heat waves, cyclones, droughts, rising seas, if the world failed to act quickly. Now we discover the Exxon Mobil funded think tank, the American Enterprise Institute has been bribing scientists to say it isn't so.

- The greening of Exxon Mobil?
  Posted by SoxFirst
  After years of condemning climate change campaigners, Exxon Mobil now says it’s going green. But a closer look reveals the company’s line on global warming is still the same. It’s just being pragmatic.

US business in the dark on climate change

I’m sure Canadian businesses aren’t far behind, though there’s an imbalance in the average created almost exclusively by the corporations making their living off exploiting the northern Alberta (Athabasca) Oil Sands – with virtually zero consideration for even the local biosphere or environment.
