so you simply cannot blame a business for making profits with the least amount of expenses. Exxon is not in business to save the planet, they are in business to get oil out of the ground and into our cars and by-products made into computers.

it would never be profitable for oil cos to make shit 100% fail safe, that's a pipedream.

Here's another example- arrowhead bottled water has been sucking out acquifer water from deep underneath California for 150 years and depleting ground water just so they can fill up billions of 10oz plastic bottles that end up on all our beaches.

what do you propose we do with 150 year old arrowhead corp as we deal with an epic worst on record drought?
