> its own scientists were aware for decades of how fossil fuels warm the planet I see this repeated over and over, and it's wrong. The issue is, we live in a complex system. We cannot know how changing one thing will affect the system. It can't be calculated, and it's not amenable to simulation. So the correct way to state this would be something like "its own scientists suspected for decades that fossil fuels warm the planet". I mean, if they were dishonest, call them out for that. Just don't say they were certain of something back then that we're not capable of knowing even now. Being insiders does not help -- it does not give them any special ability to calculate things about a complex system.
