Reminder that in 1982, Exxon understood the greenhouse effect well enough to predict the extent of CO₂-induced warming to this day — and instead of publicizing this information they buried it internally, hired denialist lobbyists, and ramped up fossil fuel extraction.🔌💡

Retro-looking internal research figure from Exxon R&D, dated 1982. Caption: "range of global mean temperature from 1850 to the present with the projected instantaneous climatic response to increasing CO2 concentrations". The x-axis is the year, stretching from 1850 to 2100. The y-axis is the "range of global mean temperature -- Kelvin". A wide arrow, the width denoting the range of natural climatic noise, stretches from left to right, denoting the hypothetical range of temperatures in the absence of human intervention. The arrow forks into a second arrow around the year 1950, predicting a temperature range of 0.6-2.0 K by the year 2025 and 2.5-3.5 K by the year 2100, labeled "Expected range of fluctuations including CO2 effect".
