Whether you’re pissed off about the climate catastrophe or sick of the corporate windfall profits from being ripped off at the gas pumps, I though people would be shocked to learn that NJ Audubon’s “Corporate Stewardship Council” has a new member – climate criminal Exxon-Mobil.
Presumably, that means that NJ Audubon also has a new corporate major donor.
Exxon Mobil became one of NJ Audubon’s corporate friends – close friends – after NJ Audubon hired a former Exxon Mobil scientist as their CEO. How cozy a relationship, see:
Exxon Mobil now joins such major corporate polluters and climate criminals as Dupont (Chemours), Pfizer, Covanta, JCP&L, PSE&G, Atlantic City Electric, Eastern Propane, and Donald Trump’s National Golf Course.
The NJ Audubon’s map of corporate greenwashing reads like a who’s who of Big Oil, Big Pharma, Big Chemicals, and major developers and pollution sites – take a look:
Apparently, the NJ environmental community has no problems with NJ Audubon’s corporate greenwashing – even for fossil criminal Exxon Mobil – one of the Big Oil climate criminals that NJ DEP just announced a lawsuit against for climate fraud.
Take a look at all those smiling faces: (listen!)
The members and donors of NJ environmental groups and NJ media have to ask these folks the question Tom Waits asked, in Step Right Up:
How do we do it?, How do we do it? How do we do it? How do we do it?
PS – In terms of leveraging the revolving door, let’s not forget that NJ Audubon’s former head of Corporate Stewardship (and forestry/logging) John Cecil, is now Assistant Commissioner For Parks And Forests at the Murphy DEP, where he’s championing “thinning” of Pinelands State forests, the same “active management” approach he presented to the Pinelands Commission last spring just before joining DEP.
But that’s not all: former DEP head of Science and Research, Eileen Murphy is now NJ Audubon’s chief Trenton lobbyist.
You really can’t make this stuff up (which is awful, even by NJ standards).
