Exxonmobile (esso to the brits) has pumped an amazing 20.3 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere since 1882.
Do you think they could end up being sued for health problems in the way the tobbacco firms did because they deny any negative effects?

They certainly should, but not likely. What they are doing is completely legal, and oil can be considered a necessity.

Yes I think someone should sue them. When I was yonger you could walk aroung the country lanes in the summer and see wild flowers growing. Now all you can see is withered foliage. You cant blame acid rain. Because it is only the kerbsides that are affected. :(
