"The history's well established & irrefutable: #OilAndGas knew exactly what #ClimateChange is, its relationship to their product & exactly how dire it would get for nearly 50 years now, at a minimum. The response was to deny, create doubt, slow walk solutions & pretend to help while making it worse"

"#BigOil, the billionaires & their legions of puppets all have very direct, clear reasons to maintain this broken & burning status quo. The only thing that can stop them remains US. They have all the money but there's way more of us than them. The battle for #HeartsAndMinds never had higher stakes"
"It's a hearts & minds thing. #BigOil has always understood that & we'd better get smart about it fast. As for talking about #ClimateChange, it wasn't even the right time to talk about it during the #LAWildfires, which came with $250 billion worth of damages. That's if money's all you care about."

"It never had to be this way & all of it remains entirely fixable by a well-informed populace even now. That means rooting out things like foreign ownership of our national media & the indoctrination of our children by the now largely foreign-owned big oil companies. It's a hearts and minds thing."
"The federal government is coming out with a framework on environmental learning which needs best practices and principles & to be aligned with our treaty obligations under the #ParisAgreement to limit warming to 1.5, placing the urgent need to transition away from fossil fuels in the framework."
"Just as we wouldn't want #BigTobacco sponsoring events at our schools, #BigOil shouldn't be either. There needs to be a ban on #FossilFuels sponsorship & provincial governments need to step up & fund the #ClimateChange education our kids deserve."
"#ForOurKids has a number of actions folks can take at the school board, provincial & federal levels of government. At school boards we ask them to establish policies to vet resources to exclude organizations that have a conflict of interest like #FossilFuel industry funding."

"It's important to remember: they don't just sow doubt about #ClimateChange & the science. They undermine the political will needed to address it, they go directly after climate policy. They're doing this in our schools, which is horrifying & they're lobbying intensively right now in government."
"The 'global science communications action plan' was introduced at a meeting by the #AmericanPetroleumInstitute which directly says 'we achieve victory when the average citizen recognizes there are uncertainties about climate science' then lays out a plan including getting into the education system."
"Doing the research, looking at the long history of disinformation it was really chilling to read reports from climate science teams that were reporting to the #FossilFuels industry that if we continue with these emissions & pumping CO2 into the atmosphere, it threatens global habitability!"
"As a former teacher teaching science curriculum, it mentioned #ClimateChange but the connection to the fossil fuel industry which provides the fuels, which are then burned, which then causes the carbon emissions, and that's what's climbing and causing climate change, that connection was missing."
"It needs to be in the public sphere & we need to get corporate #FossilFuel influence out. We need our governments to step up on this with full transparency and accountability to really address the trajectory we're on and the critical need to change course. It's URGENT."
"The importance of evidence based #ClimateChange education is all the more critical considering the corrupted information sphere in which we're all living. #BigTech funds algorithms that fuel messages to young people. It's really hard for young people to navigate this corrupted information sphere."
"The Alberta government's 2024 curriculum appears to have been developed with #BigOil involvement, directing teachers to discuss the benefits of #OilAndGas & their role in Alberta's economy. A recent report found an industry funded nonprofit lobbies to include this content in the curriculum."
"We know young people are really suffering anxiety about the #ClimateCrisis. We have to be honest and we have to address this. With good publicly funded, #ClimateChange education."

"Lots of #TechnoOptimism with #CarbonCature being represented as the big solution with no reference to it being tremendously expensive yet minimally effective or how it distracts us from the real solution, which is the transition away from #FossilFuels, a really critical aspect of #PetroPedagogy."
" #RedWashing is a term from the #YellowheadInstitute & #IndigenousScholarsPoint, & refers to how #BigOil seeks to represent its relationships with Indigenous peoples as entirely positive, excluding voices critical of them & resisting the way #Indigenous lands & waters are being destroyed."
