350.org responds to Exxon subpoena: “Exxon is trying to distract the public by directly attacking us”

New York, NY — 350.org objected to all grounds of a subpoena received directly from ExxonMobil. In response, Jamie Henn, 350.org Communications Director issued the following statement:

“We must be doing something right to get subpoenaed by the world’s largest oil company. Clearly the revelations about Exxon’s climate cover up have hit a nerve. Rather than admitting the truth, Exxon is trying to distract the public by directly attacking us. Instead they’re just proving our point: when faced with an opportunity to come clean, Exxon is falling back on its long history of deceit, denial and delay. We of course will continue to shine a spotlight on Exxon’s climate crimes.”
