"I hope this medal makes up for 2024 being the year of highest oil production in US history. Which happened in defiance of all the climate science you've been trying to tell us about. You know, as part of the years of science education this award honors."

They'll pat you on the back – tell you all is forgiven. Just remember, it won't be for you...
