06/02/2022 Pretty important story, told very very well. The history of Exxon's knowledge of the climate change threat going back to the 70s (at least) and the story of how they tried to deny climate science and stall climate solutions in the 1990s onwards. Nobody likes to be lied to. See more 05/19/2022 Amazing archival footage and interviews. Powerful stuff. See more Read all reviews
