Nieuwe studie CPB: Klimaatbeleid schaadt bedrijven nauwelijks

Ondernemers lijken hun bedrijfsvoering aan te passen op klimaatbeleid, in plaats van hun bedrijf te verplaatsen naar landen zonder of met minder streng klimaatbeleid.

Prachtig klassiek concert ter plekke! Een heel orkest met tientallen mensen duikt op de A12 op!

BP’s CEO recently boasted that in '22 his company had its “lowest production cost in 16 years.”

As you paid through the nose at the pump, BP raked in $27.7 billion in profits — up from $12.8 billion in '21.

Big Oil is getting away with highway robbery.
