These companies include fossil fuel giants like Chevron, Shell, and BP, who have been raking in record profits.
The profits of Big Oil should not be more important than the future of our planet.

One of the dipshit's favorite talking points over the last 24 hours is that LA cut their firefighting budget.
As usual, it's bullshit. It was actually increased.
In the midst of people losing everything these assholes are attempting to use it as a political weapon.
That assertion is wrong. The city was in the process of negotiating a new contract with the fire department at the time the budget was being crafted, so additional funding for the department was set aside in a separate fund until that deal was finalized in November. In fact, the cityβs fire budget increased more than $50 million year-over-year compared to the last budget cycle, according to Blumenfieldβs office, although overall concerns about the departmentβs staffing level have persisted for a number of years.
I don't know if the LA fire department is properly funded or not but the claim that the city cut its budget last year β which is circulating widely on the right β is false.
As Politico notes, the budget actually INCREASED by $50 million. A portion of the funding was approved in a separate bill.
Three tweets from Clean Air Club an hour ago Is now a good time to mention that last month over 25 Los Angeles schools rejected our offers of completely free air purifiers for every single classroom on their campuses? There's a widespread hostility to anyone offering solutions at the intersection of climate change, pandemics, and resource depletion. It was wild to get replies along the lines of "don't contact us ever again" when we were literally offering tens of thousands in free gear When you try to solve a problem that most people are in denial about, you're going to encounter hostility and gaslighting instead of enthusiasm and solidarity
Goddamn.

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.
