The real cost of corporate fossil fuel emissions

Original: Corporations claim their fossil fuel emissions are a drop in the ocean. But what if we could count the real cost?

Corporations frequently defend their fossil fuel emissions as insignificant compared to the global total, a framing critics call misleading. A new Guardian piece examines what the true cost of those emissions would be if their full environmental and economic impact on the oceans were properly counted, challenging the industry's 'drop in the ocean' argument and reigniting debate over corporate accountability for climate damage.

Why now: Fresh reporting challenging corporate claims about emissions is prompting renewed debate over climate accountability.
