Lindsey Gulden appears to be one. On&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/lindsey-gulden_he-wants-oil-money-off-campus-shes-funded-activity-7169685527149948928-207S?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop\">social media<\/a>, she tells of just this experience, invoking climate alarmism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But she does note one thing of interest: the company\u2019s overhyped political play of carbon capture and storage, which is correct. But it is climate exaggeration that has created the political winds to allow ExxonMobil to get its piece of the taxpayer-subsidy pie. Dialing back politics would right-size the very technology she decries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Her Story<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt may not be advisable to talk on LinkedIn about the time I was fired by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/feed\/hashtag\/?keywords=exxonmobil&amp;highlightedUpdateUrns=urn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A7169685527149948928\">#ExxonMobil<\/a>,\u201d she begins. \u201cBut here goes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/feed\/hashtag\/?keywords=climate&amp;highlightedUpdateUrns=urn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A7169685527149948928\">#climate<\/a>&nbsp;scientist\u2026.

To put it mildly, that experience fundamentally altered my opinion of whether present-day ExxonMobil can be considered an honest broker in anything, but most especially in the realm of the energy transition, which is a far-greater-than-$10-billion threat to the Exxon\u2019s bottom line\u2026.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What is good for oil and gas re ExxonMobil is&nbsp;<em>good for energy consumers worldwide<\/em>.

If she is in turmoil about her time at ExxonMobil and the way forward, a fundamental rethink is in order. Whole new ideas to quell \u2018climate anxiety\u2019 as the world\u2019s energy needs continue to be met, increasingly so, by oil, natural gas, and coal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Exxon and ExxonMobil: The Road Not Taken<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More fundamentally, Exxon and (after 1997) ExxonMobil abandoned the moral high ground when it substituted&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.masterresource.org\/exxon-mobil\/exxonmobil-appeasement-milloy-2021\/\">appeasement for principle<\/a>, which began around the time of President Obama\u2019s election in 2008.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is a strong intellectual case&nbsp;<em>against<\/em>&nbsp;the view that Exxon \u2013 ExxonMobil \u201cknew\u201d that CO2 was a threat to human betterment.
