Easy ways to stop promoting your own destruction ๐๐ผ.

Put another way, those oil company profits alone are over 2,600x the amount pledged to the UN's climate adaptation fund last year. .
Big Oil raked in record-breaking profits. The companies that caused the climate crisis are getting rich as they fuel the fire. @ExxonMobil: $55.7 billion.@Shell: $39.87 billion.@Chevron: $35.5 billion.@BP_plc: $27.7 billion . No time to wait. #ActOnClimate. #panelsnotpipelines
