Climate activist Greta Thunberg has been charged with a public order offense after being arrested at a demonstration against an oil industry conference in London.
I won’t agree with her every decision nor statement, but I completely agree with her sentiment. After working for one of these oil majors, I believe it’s going to take a lot of public pressure to get them to do the right thing. They’ll do it, eventually, but the crusty execs need to be made to bend. My coworkers were all into sustainability and excited at new initiatives we’d hear about. It was the executive leadership that inhibited everything.

There will be a time when the protesting stops and the surprise visits start.
They will never bent, but surely rot.
That time hasn’t come yet, though, the lists may have been produced already.
