    'You Can’t Live Without Us': How Big Oil Pivoted from Climate-friendly Messaging to Normalise Dependence on Fossil Fuels  

    Four of the world’s biggest oil and gas companies have spent the last four years systematically shifting away from climate-friendly advertising to push a new message: fossil fuels are here to stay, a report has found.  Campaign group Clean Creatives analysed 1,859 communications from BP, Shell, ExxonMobil, and Chevron published between 2020 and 2024, spanning paid advertisements on Facebook, YouTube, […]

    'The report found a “consistent and coordinated narrative shift” from attempts to portray the companies as climate leaders to embracing what Clean Creatives calls “fossil fuel permanence” — the idea that the world can’t function without oil and gas...'

    '... campaigns at the beginning of the analysis emphasised climate targets and clean energy transition pledges, frequently positioning themselves as transition partners. However, by 2023, messaging “increasingly framed” oil and gas as “permanent, indispensable and essential to economic stability and national security”.'

    @raulinbonn @liw I remember the adverts in the computer press saying that companies wouldn't need programmers to write applications - that was probably the late 80s/early 90s, whilst I was still at school.
