Chevron's response re InfluenceMap report claiming misleading climate-related branding & lobbying

Chevron fundamentally disagrees with the "influence map" report and believes it does not promote a constructive nor an honest conversation regarding climate change solutions. We deny the assertion that Chevron had engaged in "climate-related branding and lobbying" that is "overwhelmingly in conflict" with the Paris Agreement. We believe there is no evidence Chevron misled the public about climate change... Chevron believes climate change is real and human activity contributes to it.. Chevron recognizes the findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that the use of fossil fuels contributes to increases in global temperatures... We align our outlook and activity with the principles of the IPCC...Chevron is taking action to address climate change and investing in technology and low carbon business opportunities that could reduce greenhouse gas emissions... Along with other metrics, financial compensation for executives and most other employees will be linked to achieving these reductions...
