The impacts and solutions of the Climate Crisis
I'm not a fan of any of these companies, by any means whatsoever, but this is not a good title for this graph. Climate change results when CO₂ is put into the atmosphere, not so much when petroleum is extracted from the ground. Oil companies definitely share a lot of the blame, but the buyers and users of their products are no less at fault. Saying that Shell or Chevron or whatever are responsible in proportion to their production is an oversimplification.
CO2e is a calculation of emissions, not production. Where does this graph say it's measuring production?
Isnt BP called beyond petrol for some time now? Heard something about that in a 2bg video
If we insert one more dimension in the cube, of use case? What will be top 3 slices from shell? Industry, sea/air travel, road usage what?
