I need a place to keep all the thoughts in my head that don't make it past my lips.

Good morning to everyone who is going to troll an oil company today 😇

The goal of bullying Big Oil companies over their climate tweets isn’t just to educate people about corporate hypocrisy. It’s to unite activists around the goal of taking away their social license to operate.
Oil majors have admitted to investors that their business would be in deep trouble without broad public support. They’ve also admitted the biggest threat to maintaining social license is public anger over climate change.
Oil companies could remedy this threat by winding down their fossil fuel operations, and investing heavily in renewable energy. But for the most part, they’ve chosen to combat public anger over climate change by investing in strategic communication.This consistent choice of empty climate words over meaningful climate action is why several Shell executives quit the company this week—and it’s why Heglar says social media call-outs are increasingly powerful.

Uhm, yes, big reblog on this. I mean the show took way too long to set up, unfortunately, and there was too much space between “key moments” but those spaces were filled with awkward pauses and hot sex so if STARZ isn’t gonna finish what they started, can someone else please pick this show up??
