TotalEnergies hits back at study claiming it ‘downplayed’ threat of global warming in 1970s
TotalEnergies has hit back at claims it “downplayed” the potential for fossil fuels to lead to “catastrophic global warming” in the 1970s.
The French supermajor says its knowledge of climate risk 50 years ago was “no different” from that published in scientific journals at the time, and it is therefore “wrong to claim” it covered up the perils.
It added that it “deplores the process” of digging up a situation from decades ago without highlighting the “efforts, changes, progress and investments” the company has made since then.
