In its reportage on climate change research at ExxonMobil, the Los Angeles Times made a very telling editorial decision. The paper chose not to publish the document it cites as Exhibit A in its case against us: a 1989 presentation to Exxon's board of directors by senior company scientist Duane Levine. I have no doubt why the newspaper doesn't want the public to see this document. When you read it – which you can do here – it soon becomes clear that the document undercuts the paper's claims that ExxonMobil knew with certainty everything there is to know about global warming back in the 1980s yet failed to sound alarms.https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_climate_facts.jpg
