Episode: Episode 40: The Oil Industry wants to Fight Climate Change
Description: The oil and gas industry is often attacked by climate change activists, but the industry says that they want to play a critical role in combatting climate change. Is this just PR or is this interest real?
Joining me for a discussion on the energy industry's response to climate change is Mark Cameron, Vice President of the Pathways Alliance and former director of policy for the Harper government. We discuss the βnet zero by 2050β commitment made by the industry and dive into a conversation about the carbon tax, clean energy production, greenwashing, and corporate social responsibility.
