Bill McKibben has a great life via Exxon oil billions of David Rockefeller but wants to deny you the same opportunity

On 10/29/12, McKibben denounced Chevron oil money, implied it caused a hurricane:

10/29/12, “Bill McKibben twitter

Chevron made largest political contribution ever last week, NYC swamped by largest storm this week. Pretty much a straight line, no?”

On 8/2/2012, McKibben denounced Shell Oil money:

8/2/12, “Global Warming’s Terrifying New Math, Three simple numbers that add up to global catastrophe – and that make clear who the real enemy is,” Rolling Stone, by Bill McKibben

We have met the enemy and they is Shell.”…(2nd to last parag.)

4/21/11 Press release announcing Bill McKibben merger with oil billionaire Rockefeller Fund:

4/21/11, “1Sky and 350.org: Stronger as One,” rbf.org, Rockefeller Brothers Fund, Jessica Bailey

“This month marked the exciting marriage of 1Sky and 350.orgtwo grantees of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund’s Sustainable Development program….

The announcement to merge 1Sky and 350.org—two of the biggest movements on climate—into a single organization under the banner of 350.org, gives me hope that we just might build a people-powered movement strong enough to protect this planet. 1Sky and 350.org were born around the same time and involved many of the same leaders. Bill McKibben, who has been a 1Sky board member and will chair the new 350.org board…. 1Sky was founded to support ambitious environmental action in the United States that would keep emissions targets to scientifically defendable levels, stop new coal-fired power plants, and build a green economy strong enough to create

  • five million new green jobs.”…

Forbes profile, David Rockefeller, Sr., net worth “$2.5 billion,” Source of Wealth: Standard Oil, Banking”

===============================

Exxon was created from the Standard Oil Company of John D. Rockefeller:

A Guide to the ExxonMobil Historical Collection, 1790-2004: Part 1,” University of Texas at Austin

With the merger of Exxon and Mobil in 1999, the newly formed Exxon Mobil Corporation brought together a shared history that dates back over 120 years to their origins as part of the Standard Oil family of companies.

John D. Rockefeller and partners formed the Standard Oil Company of Ohio in 1870.”…

As we note below in a new article for Yale360, a funny thing happened: U.S. emissions started going down in 2005 and are expected to decline further over the next decade.”

11/23/11, “Europe’s $287 billion carbon ‘waste’: UBS report,” The Australian, by Sid Maher

SWISS banking giant UBS says the European Union’s emissions trading scheme has cost the continent’s consumers $287 billion for “almost zero impact” on cutting carbon emissions.”…EU CO2 trading provided “windfall profits” to participants paid for by “electricity customers.”"

————————————-

McKibben and his oil billionaire partner David Rockefeller’s job is done in the US. Congratulations on your success! The science says the US has lost much of its CO2 and is on track to lose more.

Other countries’ CO2 hasn’t dropped–despite billions spent on cap and trade and extra taxes. It sounds like Mr. McKibben hadn’t factored in the possibility that he’d achieve his goal of CO2 reduction in the US so soon. Or perhaps he’s denying the science. CO2 “terror” is over, Bill.
