Massachusetts is suing ExxonMobil to hold the oil giant accountable for systematically and intentionally misleading consumers and investors about its role in causing climate change, in violation of Massachusetts state law.
“Exxon has known for decades about the catastrophic climate impacts of burning fossil fuels — its chief product. Yet, to this day, Exxon continues to deceive Massachusetts consumers and investors about the dangerous climate harms caused by its oil and gasoline products and the significant risks of climate change — and efforts to address it — to Exxon’s business. We are suing to stop this illegal deception and penalize the company for its misconduct.”
