    I had to read way too far to find out which companies. Referring to them collectively as “Big Oil” is certainly easier, but it also shields them from the bad publicity they deserve.

    Exxon, Chevron, BP, Shell, the American Petroleum Institute, and the Chamber of Commerce are all under investigation.

    Name them. Shame them. They are destroying our ability to live.
