    品牌回应

    • 否认 — Exxon

      “Legal proceedings like this waste millions of dollars of taxpayer money and do nothing to advance meaningful actions that reduce the risks of climate change,” Exxon said in a statement, quoted by the Minneapolis Star Tribune.
    • 否认 — American Petroleum Institute

      The American Petroleum Institute said that the oil and gas industry has over the past two decades provided “affordable, reliable American energy to U.S. consumers while substantially reducing emissions and our environmental footprint. Any suggestion to the contrary is false.”
    • 否认 — Exxon

      Exxon spokesman Casey Norton called the lawsuit “part of a coordinated, politically motivated campaign against energy companies.”
    • 否认 — API

      “Any suggestion to the contrary is false,” said API Chief Legal Officer Paul Afonso.
