Small point: although #ExxonKnew and promoted 'unreasonable psychology', of course they weren't the first to understand the greenhouse effect: see eg #JohnTyndall and #EuniceFoote in the 1850s and Svante #Arrhenius's public talks in the 1890s.
Agree we can collectively #StopBurningStuff. It requires not just technical solutions, eg #electrification and #heatpumps, but making sure human institutions do not undermine true sustainability.
Unternehmen wie Exxon, Blackrock, Deutsche Bank, Gazprom, BP, TotalEnergies, RWE und andere zerstören für den schnellen Profit durch Finanzierung und Durchführung fossiler Projekte wissentlich unsere Lebensgrundlage.
...#Arrhenius estimated the effect of the burning of fossil fuels as a source of atmospheric CO2.
👉He predicted that a doubling of CO2 due to fossil fuel burning alone would take 500 years and lead to temperature increases of 3 to 4 °C (about 5 to 7 °F)👈.
This is probably what has earned Arrhenius his present reputation as the first to have provided a model for the effect of industrial activity on #GlobalWarming."

On the Influence of Carbonic Acid in the Air upon the Temperature of the Ground
#Arrhenius’s paper is the first to quantify the contribution of #CarbonDioxide to the #GreenhouseEffect and to speculate about whether variations in the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide have contributed to long-term variations in climate.
