“This is like a big tobacco executive blows cigarette smoke in your face and says that they demand that doctors have to meet some of the similar standards that big tobacco does for its advertising," said MP Charlie Angus #greenwashing #CAPP #fossilfuels https://www.nationalobserver.com/2024/09/06/news/oil-lobbyists-environmental-groups-greenwashing-rules-CAPP
CAPP says environmental groups should be held to same anti-greenwashing standards as oil sector
The federal government passed a law in June that says corporations must be able to provide evidence to support their environmental claims.

A career #OilAndGas #insider will soon be shaping #ClimatePolicy in #Alberta’s department of #Environment and #ProtectedAreas.
After a decade working in various roles for the #Canadian Association of #PetroleumProducers #CAPP , Patrick McDonald has been hired by Alberta Environment and Protected Areas to serve as assistant deputy minister of air, #climate and clean technology.
CAPP is one of Canada’s biggest and most aggressive #FossilFuel #LobbyGroups; it held 91 meetings with government officials in 2023, second only to the #PathwaysAlliance with 104, according to a recent report by #EnvironmentalDefence. CAPP’s member companies are responsible for nearly three quarters of Canada’s annual #oil and #NaturalGas production.
propaganda agencies #OilAndGas, like #CAPP, #PathwaysAlliance produce lies, propaganda, distortions to keep producing #FossilFuel! Making #ClimateCrisis #ClimateEmergency much worse. #Greed #Selfish! “The modern conservative is engaged in … the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.”
They are blanking websites because the propaganda will not stand up to a reasonable science, engineering review.
#CAPP released a report yesterday saying #Emissions cap would cost them investment $$, jobs, perhaps to rile up #Albertans. The report is based on conventional #oil, but the majority of emissions are from oil sands. #AB is not (usually) so gullible; the Edmonton Journal ran the same CP article as CBC.
Which quotes one wide-eyed naif calling the cap a “reckless gamble that will devastate Canadian families and do nothing to reduce global emissions.”
Higher oil prices don’t shake industry talk on spending discipline at CAPP conference
The price of oil has been on a steady climb all year, but the talk at Canada's biggest oil and gas conference is still focused on spending discipline.

"Stopping the #fossilfuel investments and vast subsidies that are throwing fuel on the #climate fire is critical.' Is #Canada listening? https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/sep/08/climate-action-un-global-emissions-report
@alanrycroft Still Wilkinson, Freeland, et al. continue to dump millions of public funds into #fossilfuels subsidies, building #LNG and #oil pipelines, chasing hokey carbon capture schemes, and meeting with #CAPP lobbyists. The Govt of #Canada is NOT serious about #climateBreakdown.
An excellent examination of the Canadian O&G industry’s greenwashing machine, #PathwayAlliance, which also delves into its predecessor, #CAPP and the later’s sponsorship of the #YellowVest movement which was headed up by the same folks responsible for the #FreedomConvoy & the occupation of our nation’s capital, #Ottawa

Oilsands lobby group spent $1.6 million to sway the Alberta election. The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) ran ads and campaigns to promote pro-oil candidates and policies. This could undermine democracy and environmental protection in the province.
