Shell Leaves Alec

Considering that Shell,
. . . is the 6th largest historical producer of industrial carbon emissions,
. . . may soon sever ties with the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC),
. . . a U.S.-based lobbying group, who's stance on climate change,
. . . “is clearly inconsistent with our own.”
It seems clear that there is a divide, and perhaps a growing one,
. . . among fossil fuel companies,
. . . when it comes to how they want to approach climate change.
. . . Those divides seem to exist within the companies themselves, too.
The good news is,
. . . that the world is moving ahead with increasing alacrity to reduce carbon emissions,
. . . and grapple with the risks that are already baked in from climate change.
