ExxonMobil To Shareholders: Climate Change Is Real, and It’s Threatening

I had to laugh when I read this.  Yes, ExxonMobil is acknowledging the fact of climate change.  But from the headline, I inferred that the fossil fuel giant had come to terms with the fact that its products are ruining the planet, and the company is making plans to re-orient its business out of concern for the health and safety of the seven billion people who live here. 

Silly me.  A few sentences later I realized the truth:  They’re concerned that climate change could make their operations less profitable.  Wow.
