Exxon Might Be in Trouble Over Climate Change

First, I agree that we are driving the cause behind the recent climate change issue.

However, I'm not quite sure how they can prove Exxon lied about this if climate change itself is something that can't be proven easily as true in the court of law.

It has a majority agreement among the scientific community but people are allowed to disagree about it outside of that community and in the courts.

If the climate change can be proven as a legal fact 100% all the way, then you can say Exxon intentionally lied but Exxon can just say it believes that and get away with it as their protected right.

As long as we continue to proclaim legally that companies are "people with rights", than we have no rights to change how they can speak or "lie" to people.
