Exxonmobil Must Stand Trial Over Alleged Climate Lies

This story was originally published by the Guardian and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration. Massachusetts’ top court on Tuesday ruled that the nation’s largest oil company, ExxonMobil, must face a trial over accusations that it lied about the climate crisis and covered up the fossil fuel industry’s role in worsening environmental devastation. Exxon claimed the case, brought by Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey, was politically motivated and amounted to an attempt to prevent the company from exercising its free speech rights.
