"Senate Democrats Call Out Exxon Mobil On Climate Change"

"A coalition of 19 top Democrats took the senate floor Monday afternoon to call for an end to what they referred to as the fossil fuel industry’s “web of denial” on climate change, calling out companies including Irving-based Exxon Mobil.

Among those speaking were Virginia Senator Tim Kaine and Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, both reported to be on the short list as Hillary Clinton’s vice presidential running mate.

“We have to be open to different points of view, but when the science is settled and people who know better are fighting against it we should know better,” Kaine said."

James Osborne reports for the Houston Chronicle/FuelFix July 11, 2016.
