Exxon removed from climate advocacy group
Exxon Mobil was removed from the Climate Leadership Council (CLC), a climate advocacy group that it formed as the council looks for policies to address climate change.
"After careful consideration, we have decided to suspend ExxonMobil's membership in both the Council and Americans for Carbon Dividends, our advocacy arm," CLC CEO Greg Bertelsen said in a statement.
In a statement, Exxon said that the CLC's decision was both "disappointing and counterproductive."
"It's more important than ever for organizations to work together to advance meaningful policy solutions to address shared challenges and society's net-zero ambitions," the company said.
A month earlier, an Exxon lobbyist said the company supports a carbon tax publicly.
