In Canada, a new law makes dishonest greenwashing illegal.

Suddenly every claim about Carbon Capture and Storage has been scrubbed much more thoroughly than smokestack exhaust.

Greenwashers "we're taking down our lies, not because they became more accurate, but because the law made us."

Is the attempt to spin it a hilarious fail, or a painful reminder that they're intact and still trying to spread BS?

"After the passage of Bill C-59, the Pathways Alliance immediately scrubbed its entire website. “This is a direct consequence of the new legislation and is not related to our belief in the truth and accuracy of our environmental communications,” it explained."

Legislators:
“There will be large fines if you make claims about carbon reduction without evidence.”

Exxon:
“We’re just going to take down all these documents promoting Carbon Capture and Storage.
Ermm…. For a stock take.”
